"People love to move and dance to our marimba bands, so we have taken this concept to the next level" says amaAmbush company founder, and band producer, Ross Johnson. Having completed a degree in Jazz Performance at UCT, and after many years of performing in Rock, Classical and African groups, he is ideally placed to produce a band of this nature.

The band consists of 3 marimbas, a drum kit, a percussionist, a brass player and a lead female vocalist.
