Welcome to SAMBALISTIC online

Do you like Samba? Do you like the drums? Do you like the energy you can feel when listening to a Samba Band? Are you stopped in your tracks walking down the street and you just have to listen to the Samba drums?

You have arrived at West Lothian’s Original Samba Band: Sambalistic!

Our band was formed in 1999 following a workshop organised by West Lothian Councils Arts Unit. Since then, we have grown from strength to strength and bring the exciting and captivating sounds of samba to any occasion. You’ll catch us livening up gala days, major sporting events and music festivals across Scotland.

Do you want to have a go yourself? Feel free to come along! In the past few months, several new members joined the band and they are absolutely loving it! You don’t need any musical knowledge – just passion for the drums – and a little bit of rhythm! We can provide beginners samba workshops for new members. All you have to do is bring enthusiasm and a sense of fun.

During school terms, we practice every Thursday evening – from 7.30 pm until 9.30 pm – at Linlithgow Academy (in the library or main assembly hall). Just turn up and have a go yourself!

Getting hold of us could not be easier, just call  Andy (01506) 847006 or via our contact form.
