Description
"Gourd filled with seeds. The open end at the bottom of the gourd is closed with a maize cob. Often played in pairs. Comes in different sizes. It is used in the Entabanana dance (a mixed dance) and accompanies the obokano. The ebirandi shaker keeps the rhythm going also for instance when the obokano player stops playing."
