Immerse yourself in the American history of the tank drum
The tank drum, also known as the hank drum, has a story rooted in American traditions and folklore. Originating in the United States, this instrument draws inspiration from the slit drum. It was once used by the ancient Aztecs and other Indigenous peoples for communication and rituals. In 1990, Jim Doble, an American craftsman, had the idea of designing the Whale Drum, a metal drum made from gas cylinders. That concept was later refined by Dennis Havlena. The modern tongue drum was born around that time, offering richer, more musical tones than the Whale Drum. These American makers shared their love of music publicly through their wonderful creations. Enjoy an inspiring sound journey with this instrument.
