AMAZON COME TOGETHER
RUMBLE INCA JUNGLE
Peace and Conservation
Imagine a gathering of musicians from the west, joined by musicians from developing countries from around the world who play traditional instruments; different religions, languages, cultures, colour of skin and histories (differences that usually create wars), brought together on the Amazon and to help break the world record for the longest performance of 65 hours of non-stop and jamming with villages while we sail down the Amazon River.
Music is the only positive international language and a great healer of all differences and the only real vessel for peace. “If there is something to be changed in this world, then it can only happen through music.” – Jimi Hendrix
Come and join us on this once in a lifetime trip of 7 days sailing down the Amazon for a cultural exchange never seen before. If you care about the Amazon, want to make a direct difference and create some history then this is the trip for you.
We are looking for 100 audience members and 20 musicians, tickets will sell quick. For more information contact us
The gig will be streamed live around the world and a documentary team is in place to film the event.
If you’d like to sponsor the event, be a fundraiser or join the team please get in touch contact us
