The udu originated in Nigeria and is actually a water jug with an additional hole, typically made of clay and producing a wide range of sounds. The shekere from West Africa consists of a dried gourd with beads woven into a net covering the gourd, and it may be twisted, shaked or slapped to produce a variety of effects.
Tycoon endorser Kornel Horvath had a vision to combine these two unique musical instruments and thus Tycoon has created this brand new udukere.
- Designed in collaboration with Budapest-based master percussionist Kornel Horvath
- Plays as a hybrid between an Udu drum and a Shekere
- Fiberglass construction for maximum strength and durability
- Features a 6 cm diameter hole at the bass to produce the distinct bass tones of a traditional Udu drum
- Woven beads in an adjustable nylon wrap encapsulate the outside of this instrument, where the sounds of a Shekere are played
