EMERGENCY! I’M IN A STICKY SITUATION REGARDING The UK Drum Show]

For reasons out of my control, the friend who was going to drive and help me across the weekend The UK Drum Show] has unfortunately tested positive for Covid. He is now unable to help me get from London to Liverpool on Friday and back on Sunday.

I am in a sticky situation logistically and am currently working on finding a solution. There is a possibility of having to pull out of the show altogether if I can’t find suitable travel arrangements. This is the worst case scenario which I don’t want to commit to yet.

There are still two days to work something out and any support or suggestions are welcome.

Our Story

De Broize Custom Drums proudly build heirloom quality heritage instruments, from reclaimed and recycled materials. Each instrument has a unique history, true identity and rare character.

Samuel de Broize-Ward founded the company in early 2016 following the passing of his late grandfather, Ken de Broize (1936-2016): an inspiring character and wood working enthusiast. In memory of his passing, Samuel decided to build his first truly custom stave snare drum; using his grandfathers tools and parts from his family home. This only resulted in a new addiction and drive to hone a new craft. In the process saving items from being scrapped and giving them a new lease of life, ultimately resulting in a truly unique instrument.
