Before Essential Oils, Ginger was a drummer! Here she is playing djembe drum in a Shakira video, which was nominated and won in the category of Latin Grammy Award for Best Short Form Music Video in 2000. Ginger giggles when she recalls that Shakira made the director tell her to change her wardrobe into this hysterically unattractive bright yellow men’s button down shirt.
