Drums & Percussion

Despite being the butt of a lot of (non pc) jokes, the drummer is really the one who holds the band together. It is their job to ensure that there is a steady tempo to keep everyone in time and also to provide those interesting fills between phrases and tempo changes.

Acoustic Drumkits

Most band drummers play a drumkit which is usually a 5 piece consisting of a bass drum, toms and snares. Supplementing this are the cymbals, usually a crash and ride. Kits are either acoustic or nowadays there are some fantastic electronic kits to be had which can feel and sound just like an acoustic set.

A Wide Range of Percussion Instruments

As well as the main drumkits percussion includes all sorts of instruments such as congas, bongos, cowbells and a huge selection of ethnic musical instruments from all over the world.
