When you think of musical instruments, what comes to mind? Piano? Guitar? Drums? Instruments come in all shapes, sizes, and experience levels. While standard drums may be too difficult for amateurs, instruments such as tonguing drums offer a sophisticated alternative, but it’s safe to assume that many people don’t know what a tonguing drum is. HueDrum brings tonguing drums mainstream with the HueDrum Tonguing Drum, completely revolutionizing learning the modern instrument.
Founded in 2019 by Aaron McMeo, HueDrum was born after he first encountered a tonguing drum during a trip abroad to Switzerland. Upon returning home, Aaron fell in love with creating his own version of this groundbreaking instrument, experimenting with techniques, sounds and rhythms to discover the perfect harmony. He combined the sounds of Caribbean steel pans with the sounds of traditional tonguing drums to create a unique sound that only the HueDrum tonguing drum kit can produce.
By strategically using the highest quality materials and innovating purposefully, the HueDrum is rapidly creating an inclusive movement throughout the music industry. There is no “wrong way” to play the HueDrum, as every note combination creates a unique melody that cannot be reproduced with a traditional instrument. Each drum is specially designed to improve sound quality and have a sleek, compact form factor for easy portability, allowing amateurs and professionals alike to enjoy beautiful music from anywhere in the world.
Producing the lowest priced, extremely high quality drums on the market, HueDrum has quickly become a worldwide leader in intuitive musical instruments designed to unite communities and bring joy to a conflicted world. The HueDrum Tongue Drum Kit and Pro Kit are quickly gaining attention around the world for breathing new life into an underrated instrument, revolutionizing its original concept and ushering in a new era of music.
“HueDrum is only two years old, but we’ve quickly become a leading provider of hand drums. We’re a really small team, completely bootstrapped and customer funded. People who buy our products help fund new product innovation. We’re growing quickly and I’m excited about the future of HueDrum,” says Aaron McMeo, who came up with the idea for HueDrum while studying abroad in 2019.
Through proof of concept, dedication to innovation, and an unwavering commitment to creating a movement for inclusion within the music industry, HueDrum’s purpose-driven vision has come to life with the HueDrum hand drum.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) to raise support and awareness for mental health.
