Rake N Scrape

The Bahamas has a sound.
Mama D is one of the voices taking it forward.

Rake N Scrape is saw, goatskin drum, accordion and a rhythm that has carried Bahamian celebration for generations. Mama D grew up inside that sound and carries it onto modern stages without sanding the edges off it.

Her sets move between cultural rhythm and contemporary energy, which is exactly why they work for a Bahamian crowd who knows every word and for an audience hearing it for the first time.
