Latin Afro Multi-Percussionist. Touring with Manuel Carrasco
Hi there,
I’m Gala Celia, a percussionist from Mendoza, Argentina, now based in Madrid.
I toured worldwide with Jorge Drexler and I’m currently on tour with Manuel Carrasco. Throughout my career, I’ve collaborated with a variety of artists across the Latin, Afro, and wider music scene.
My main expertise is in Latin percussion including Salsa, Timba, Rumba, Colombian and Argentinian Folklore, Afro-Peruvian, and Candombe. In addition, I also play West African percussion, like the Djembe and Doudoun. Controlling these traditional styles, I love mixing my knowledge with modern music styles like Afrobeats, Amapiano, and Afro-House.
I offer the following:
• Multitrack percussion for your production / songs.
• Percussion and drum programming.
• Percussion solos and compositions
• Recording with high-quality mics and gear.
I would love to record and add my percussion playing on your track.
Feel free to contact me, I can't wait to create together!
I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.

check_circleVerifiedGala is incredible! The rhythms and atmosphere she creates are beyond imagination, and each percussion recording is crisp and clear. Communication was easy, and I highly recommend her.
check_circleVerifiedAmazing!
check_circleVerifiedI was not sure that percussions would sit well with my song. But Gala made me a believer, she pushed the groove.

And I watched their Sabar vids and Ben's correct! Then I watched everything I could find of her :) Ben's amazing too. Waaw Waaw!

Gala is an outstanding percussionist. Her musicality and dynamic playing support and elevate the track. From crazy flowing solos to hard-grooving rhythms. I created a few tracks of Senegalese percussion with Gala and it came out so good. Super recommended!
