Sister Drum


Sister Drum is the second studio album by Chinese singer Dadawa. The album is heavily influenced by the music of Tibet and is notable for being the first Asian CD to ship over one million copies in China.
Dadawa and He Xuntian travelled to Tibet in 1995 where they made recordings that were later used in the album. Dadawa has said that she has no contact with politics and that she loves Tibetan folk music. A music video was made for the title track.
