Native American Indian Drums
When you visit an Indian reservation, pueblo, or village, you're likely to hear the beautiful, melodic sounds of Native American drums. These drums play a central role in Native songs and culture, producing the most powerful and captivating rhythms.
Variety and Craftsmanship
The types of Indian drums are diverse, with each tribe crafting drums to reflect their unique traditions and preferences. Some feature carved images of people, while others showcase animal designs. In the Northwest, vibrant colors and jewels often embellish the drums. Each drum is handcrafted, representing the artistry and skill of its maker.
Modern Popularity
Indian drums have gained popularity beyond their cultural origins, appealing to people of various ethnic backgrounds. They are often used in drumming groups and as rustic home décor. Thanks to the internet and businesses run by Native drummers, finding authentic Indian drums has become easier. Especially in the western and southwestern United States, where many tribes reside, these drums are commonly available in stores.
Purchasing and Playing Indian Drums
For those not near a reservation, authentic drums can be conveniently found online. They come in many sizes and styles, from small hand drums to large ceremonial ones. When selecting a drum, you might choose a shaman drum, which is a one-sided hand drum like those used by Plains Indians, or a Tarahumara hoop drum, which is double-sided.
Drums can be played by hand or with a beater. Ceremonial powwow drums, known for their deep tones, are particularly valued for drum circles. Unlike hand drums, powwow drums require a beater and often come with a base for support. Northwest Indian drums, made with cedar, are prized for their rich red and blond colors, adding to their uniqueness and beauty.
