 World Music Central: From Belize and Sure to Please   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
The Garifuna people of Central America are torchbearers of a musical style called paranda [also known as parranda], which, like the African/indigenous heritage of the Garifuna themselves, is an intriguing mixture.
The lively percussion pulse of paranda (provided by hand drums, shakers and struck turtle shells) is as distinctly African as can be, while the acoustic guitar accompaniment and passionately poured out vocals take on something of an Afro-Latin air.
The sound of paranda is dang near irresistible- so beautifully simple, so untouched by commercialization, so instantly appealing to the heart and hips -that it feels fresh every time you hear it.

 Newsletter - San Diego Peace Corps Association
In that area, there were three or four homes that were putting on La Paranda and it was wonderfully festive and jovial in the Puerto Rican night.
The homes were still decked out with their Christmas decorations, adding a certain excitement to the mood and it appeared to me that the homes celebrating La Paranda were the ones most ornately decorated, with light and friendship spilling out into the streets.
We then strolled to different homes which were sponsoring La Paranda, feeling fully invited and accepted by all, including hosts we had never met, and melting into the food, drinks, song and dancing with the rest of the townspeople.
