“The passion for creating spectacular drums that I have witnessed at British Drum Co. is second to none. Every single member of the BDC family is driven to this one goal of making the very best instruments they can. The creativity and craft that goes into even the tiniest of details is just breathtaking and I felt I had to be a part of this.”
