Gourd Drums

The thing about drums is they make you feel good. It's fun to play a drum and relax into a groove. It is meditative and creative. Rhythm is something inside of us, like our heartbeats, it is part of who we are. Every heartbeat from every heart was entrained by the beat of its mother, meaning we get our heartbeat rhythms from our mother. This being the case, our heartbeats can be traced back through time, back to an original heartbeat that we all share. All our hearts beat from a rhythm of one source. Drumming gets us back in touch with this source. To make your own drum is to actively participate in a ritual that is as old as mankind itself. I am excited to share my drum making video.
