Pamwe, an 8 piece Zimbabwean-style marimba ensemble, is returning to the PNW for a special run of performances! Comprised of members residing in Washington, Colorado, New Mexico, Oregon and Hawaii, this group has studied and played Zimbabwean music since their youth. Dedicated and enthusiastic, the band also had the opportunity to travel to Zimbabwe together last summer! Their unique sound (which includes marimba, drums, horns, guitar and mbira) presents high-energy traditional Zimbabwean music as well as original compositions. Pamwe released their debut album in May 2025 and are excited to unite again to perform this summer! 

“Pamwe” is a Shona word which means “a community united in purpose.” That purpose is to share this musical joy and provide educational opportunities to learn about Zimbabwean music as we have learned it from our teachers.

After a long and scenic route through life, David Locke washed up on Whidbey's shores and found a home in Langley.  Highlights of his journey have included guiding tours at California's Hearst Castle, driving trucks on the Alaska Highway, and playing salon harpsichord at the Harmony Valley Inn.  His musical career began at age nine, on the accordion, leading to a life as a professional organist and church musician.  For ten years he played and sang at St. Augustine's in the Woods, and he now plays the organ every week at Coupeville United Methodist Church.

Returning to the accordion, he appeared for fifteen years with Allspice, an international folkdance band, and more recently with Whidbey's Shifty Sailors, in addition to many coffee shop and retirement home appearances and private parties.  Specialties include a large repertoire of French Musette literature,  Brazilian choro, and standards from Europe and America.

As a Brazilian-American singer-songwriter and boutique recording artist, I create fan-funded music drawn from lived experience that gently guides listeners home to themselves—celebrating honesty, curiosity, and the human experience. Shaped by finding my way after a highly restrictive upbringing, my songs are often described as feel-good soundtracks for the soul or your next road trip.
