Early in life Veetkam had a deep attraction to India with its ancient tradition and understanding that music is a form of meditation. Where as the world of drumming and rhythm as practiced in Cuba has been a natural doorway for him to wildness, expressiveness and ecstasy.
This has been Veetkam’s journey ever since, being a part of a very international commune in India where musical expression, be it meditative, singing or roaring wildly played, was and is an important part of our lives. He says of that time, “so many great musicians, so many styles fused together as a form of prayer and worship – it was just awesome! During my extensive travels to the Caribbean Islands I was initiated to its archaic musical culture still alive as ever.”

Veetkam plays congas, bongos, and 4 other percussion isntruments on INFUSION.
