RAKITHA RUWAN WICKRAMARATHNE

EXPLORINGTHEHIDDENRHYTHM

Talented is an understatement when it comes to describing Rakitha Wickramaratne’s unique ability to add dimension to any music genre with the rhythmic sounds of percussion! Refusing to be boxed in by just one genre, this multi-talented percussionist has made a name for himself in the local and international arena using a variety of drums and percussion instruments from around the world.

Who is the founder of Naadro and performing with five other members. Rakitha started playing local drums at the age of six years. He studied at Prince of Wales college Moratuwa and Royal college Colombo. during his college time he joined Mr. Piyasara Shilpadhipathi who taught him playing all types of local drums. As a student of Royal College he won the all island schools championship for drumming several times. Later Rakitha started playing latin percussion and now he is one of the best percussionists in Sri Lanka and endorser for Lp and Gibraltar.

He has started his own company in Sri Lanka today. That is the Academy of Percussion. A large number of students are studying there. I am also a student studying there.
