YolanDa's Band Jam

Series 2

Jam #29: Shingai

First broadcast: on CBeebies HDLatest broadcast: on CBeebies HD

Available for 3 months

YolanDa Brown and her house band, the Band Jaminals, entertain an audience of children - the Band Jammers - with live music and special guests!

YolanDa gets everyone moving with the Clapping Song, encouraging everyone to clap and dance in a lively and fast way.

Joining YolanDa in this episode is singing superstar Shingai Shoniwa from the Noisettes. Shingai demonstrates some traditional African instruments made out of fruit – the Hosho and Mbira.

The Fact Jam then tells us more about these fascinating instruments - did you know that the Mbira is also known as the 'thumb piano'?

Shingai then performs Coming Home using these traditional African instruments and is then invited by YolanDa and the Band Jammers to take part in the Big Band Jam at the end of the programme.

YolanDa explains that the Big Band Jam in this episode will be based around things you can do on holiday, and a short film follows three Band Jammers as they explore possible lyric ideas for the Big Band Jam.

YolanDa and the Band Jammers are then ready for the Big Band Jam. YolanDa and the Band Jaminals join in as Shingai performs the Noisettes' hit song Never Forget You with new lyrics suggested by the Band Jammers! Show less
