Rueda de Candombe: Uruguay's Beating Heart

Author: The Daily News Now! April 20, 2026 Duration: 1:36

Experience the rhythmic heartbeat of Uruguays soul at Rueda de Candombe, a weekly drum circle in Montevideo. Started by producer Caleb Amado and friends, this lively gathering has grown from a small bar jam to a citywide phenomenon, attracting hundreds and even tourists. Rooted in African beats from the 1800s, candombe fuels everything from neighborhood hangs to February carnivals. The vibe has evolved over the years, mixing with jazz and politics, and the crew has shared stages with stars and represented Uruguay internationally. As winter approaches, theyre planning new tracks and expanding to more public spots, keeping the drums calling everyone back.
