Danmar Percussion Products was founded by Frank DeVito in 1970. After years of playing behind some of the biggest names in the music industry including Frank Sinatra, Elvis, The Beach Boys, Sonny & Cher, The Monkees, Herb Alpert, The Benny Goodman Orchestra and as a recording artist with Baja Marimba Band to name just a few. Frank found that many of the commercially manufactured drum parts just didn't cut it so he began to develop his own. Finding that his own designs worked so well he formed his own company, Danmar, to make them available to drummers everywhere.
