Drum

Drum

There’s more to the drum than just keeping the beat. In fact, so much more that we had to really dig in to appreciate its full versatility.

As humans, we respond to drums in a variety of ways, but we’re not the only ones and it’s not all about marching. So on this tour we examine some of the uses of the drum through history, and look at the latest science to see what drumming and tapping can do for us. Along the way we talk about some boys and what used to be one of the fastest communication methods around. All that and more, inside.
