Post your questions for Sheila E
Whether you want to ask the Latin music legend and groundbreaking drummer about learning to play on pots and pans, paradiddles or Prince, now’s your chance
She’s toured with the likes of Lionel Richie, Marvin Gaye and Herbie Hancock, and drummed for artists including Stevie Wonder, Mariah Carey, Diana Ross and Jennifer Lopez.
