About
Once upon a time in a small town, there lived a passionate drummer named Scott. After decades of playing on various drums made from metal, wood, acrylic, and plastic, he reveled at the idea of developing eco-friendly drums. Inspired by his love for music, Scott embarked on a 10-year journey to create drums from sustainable recycled paper. With creative perseverance, Scott perfected a paper-based drum that produced rich, vibrant sounds. Scott's innovative spirit not only fulfilled his dream but also sparked a movement among fellow musicians to embrace sustainability in their craft.
