Dope by Mudfunk, featuring Marco Haber
“Dope” is a song by Mudfunk, featuring Miami hand percussionist Marco Haber. This song plays on the story, “Cities of Refuge.”
A native of NYC and current Miami resident, Marco Haber was introduced to percussion at the age of 3 when he was enrolled in a rhythm class for young children. As a teenager, he traveled to the Middle East on a trip that would set in motion what has become a life-long passion for the expression of rhythm through drumming. Today, after decades of musical exploration, practice and performing, Marco captivates his audience with an unusual style that regularly prompts the question – “How the %+@# does he do that?”
Haber plays instruments such as the doumbek, the frame drum and the gayumba. You can view photos of Haber with these various instruments on his website.
Haber is currently working as a freelance artist and can be hired for performances, tours, recording sessions, and lessons.
