The Supadupa Marimba Bros are a group of dynaimic young men, mostly in high school, who play enthusiastic up-beat music on African-style xylophones, called marimbas. The ensemble is set up like a choir, with bass, baritone, tenor and soprano ranged instruments. The music mostly originates in Zimbabwe but the group also has some original tunes composed by their leader, Eric Miller, but based on original ideas of some of the members, as well as a few covers of popular tunes by artists such as the Beatles. The Supadupa Marimba Bros started off at a school in NW Portland called the Metropolitan Learning Center (MLC), where Miller teaches marimba as an elective. After a couple of years, the boys went off to different schools but the band stayed together. Now in their fourth year of performing, The Supadupa Marimba Bros are sounding better than ever, adding traditional Zimbabwean vocals and percussion to the mix. "We are a dynamic outfit and we are ready to rock your world."
