His dads army background has a lot to do with Tims passion for drums, which along with a legend dating back to the Crimean War, directly inspired this regimental range. Legend has it, a drummer boy who served with the British Armys 77th Regiment of Foot caught his counterpart, a Russian boy trumpeter, gave him a good hiding & captured his instrument. No one knows his name, but our drums look like his would have looked. Every drum is handcrafted with traditional methods & authentic materials including vellum, h&-painted solid wood & leather.
