Mission City Drums came about from an idea that music is a vital component in this universe.
The "mission" is to give back to music. Our success will lead to helping music programs strive and excel in and around our local communities.
I, the owner, am also a drum teacher, percussion ensemble leader, and musician. I see how striving to learn through devotion leads to a more balanced life.
Music has been medicine for me throughout my youth when I felt lost and misunderstood. It has and still does bring me back to life and energizes me!
A Brief History
I am an engineering grad who grew up in a wood shop and in front of a stereo.
I love music and have been playing drums for over 8 years.
I started messing around restoring used drums because I couldn't afford anything new. They came out so well that I continued...
I now have a shop with tools and equipment specifically for drum restoration and building.
I have invested a lot of years taking lessons, practicing, mastering drum tuning, restoring drums, building custom drums and maple hoops.
All of my research and development equates to great sounding high quality drums and hoops built by someone who knows how.
I want to extend my knowledge to clients by working on or building their drums for a fair and reasonable investment.
