A bamboula is a type of drum made from a section of giant bamboo with skin stretched over the ends.[1] It is also a dance accompanied by music from these drums. Originating in Africa, both the drum and the dance were brought to the Americas (notably New Orleans, Mobile, Alabama, and the Virgin Islands) by African slaves.[2][3][4]
