The brain child of the visionary Susie Tweedie,
Chidambaram was established in 1998 after workshops with Colin
Blakely and Erin Scrutton. From the 30 workshop participants the
band evolved into a smaller more concrete group. Throughout time
Chidambaram has seen many changes: different members, formations
and teachers. The original line up consisted of Kasey Peters,
originally a jazz drummer, who became group leader and teacher
until March 2005. Then Una stepped in to carry the torch, imparting
her vast samba experience to us until this day!
