Treat yourself to a piece of America with this tongue drum
For musicians eager to explore a unique instrument with roots in the United States, the tongue drum belongs at the top of the list. This creation by Dennis Havlena draws from an American tradition of inventive percussion. It all began with Jim Doble’s ingenuity in 1990, when he created the Whale Drum—another percussion instrument—using gas cylinders. At the time, he took inspiration from other designs, such as Aztec slit drums. Then, in 2007, Dennis Havlena refined the idea into a newer, more modern version. His approach was also influenced by Felix Rohner’s Swiss handpan. This invention has made a lasting mark on the music world. Get your hands on this must-have sound gem today!
