The Andean Drum is an important instrument to the indigenous music of the Andes. Our hand-crafted drums are made in Huancayo, Peru, from natural materials: wood, bark from trees, animal skin, and hand woven twine. Andean Drums are used for festive occasions and are an essential part of traditional Andean Music.
