Pork Pie Percussion
Founded in 1987 by Bill Detamore, Pork Pie Percussion began as a hobby in drum-making and quickly evolved into a manufacturer of some of the finest handmade drums available today. To take snare drums one step further, the brand introduced solid (one-piece), exotic wood stave, and plate brass designs, and now offers a complete line of hardware and accessories. Over the years, Pork Pie has become the place where drummers can hot rod an existing kit with edges and refinishing or design the kit of their dreams. Every drum bears Bill Detamore’s signature inside, a guarantee of quality, and at Pork Pie, the most important tools are the hands that create each drum, ensuring exceptional performance and satisfaction.
