SPRING IS HERE and Austin is blooming! Come visit DRUMZ and enjoy a stroll down the path and through the gardens (especially a treat after a delicious, healthy breakfast or lunch next door at Kerbey Lane Cafe!).
And , of course, pause at DRUMZ and take a look around, share a rhythm, say hello! We have some incredible djembes in stock now and we are receiving a big shipment of our top-of-the-line MASTER DJEMBE SERIES in about two weeks! Please note, now might be the time to make that decision to purchase one of these incredible djembes as this may be the last order. Prices on these superb instruments are becoming too high to stock and this shipment will definitely be the last at the current prices. They truly don't get any better than this so at least check them out.

We just received a shipment of beautiful mudcloth djembe bags from Mali, West Africa! It is SO important to protect those precious drum companions you have! (And if you haven't, remember we do impeccable re-heads at DRUMZ on a very regular basis.) We have a large and very wonderful selection of singing bowls at the store right now , so if you enjoy the concert here Friday night, know that you can take a bowl home with you and enjoy the meditative, calming, balancing effect of these tones on a daily basis in the comfort of your own home! We carry gongs and chimes as well.
Marimba classes on Monday evenings continue to be exciting and uplifting, with teacher and Rattletree leader, Joel Laviolette!

These rhythms from Zimbabwe and South Africa are truly magical! I can't tell you how much I love these classes and this music!And the recent Didgeridoo Series with didge phenomenon, Eliot Stone, was truly fantastic! Besides being a most extraordinary didgeridoo player, Eliot is a great and very conscientious teacher of this instrument he so loves and studies diligently! What a wondrous instrument these didgeridoos are! Ancient tools that are now said to have healing impact on our civilized afflictions,sleep apnea and snoring! That circular breathing has got to be good for you! Try it! You'll love it!
