The shekere’s history begins in Africa where this unique instrument serves as a shaker, a rattle, and a drum. Traditionally made from hollowed gourds wrapped in a lattice of stones, the instrument is popularly played by shaking or twisting it to get shaker and rattle sounds & by hitting the bottom of the body with the palm of the hand to get drum-like bass notes. Tapping, scratching other creative techniques are also used.
