About the Song
Comes From Panama is a new song with the atravesao drum beat from the Azuero region of Panama. The drum has its origin in Africa. It was brought to Panama during the 16th century when there was slave trade from Angola, Cameroon, Guinea, Congo and other territories. European influences that are rooted in the region such as the violin, mejoranera (inspired guitar) are incorporated.
