Duane (Bongo D) Scott was called to
the joy of making music by the voice of
the Conga drum. His exploration of
Jazz music exposed him to the varied
percussion instruments of Africa and
the Caribbean so it was only natural
that he would fall in love with Latin and
Brazilian music / rhythms. But in 1970
when he discovered Reggae, D had
found his calling. Equipped with a solid
musical foundation in rhythm, D
branched out to melody and harmony
with the addition of keyboards, vocals
and steel drum to his musical arsenal.
Mystical, yet approachable,D is a lover
of people and a natural entertainer.
His percussive bag of tricks are often
the highlight of a Bongo D
performance.
