EP 97 - A Look at Rope Tension Drums with Bill Whitney


Bill takes us back over a thousand years to learn the origins of rope tension drums and how the technology evolved over the centuries. We learn about shell construction, head types, guts and snare history, and much much more. Bill is a wealth of information and is the man behind Calderwood Percussion. He is a master drum builder and an all around great musician on many instruments.

Be sure to check out the Patreon bonus episode this week because Bill gives us the amazing story of how he made drums for Hamilton the musical and the gigantic bass drum he recently created.


Enjoy this episode!
