Glen Velez Designed Brushes by Grassy Creek
I designed these new brushes to use on frame drums of all types. They are made by a unique company in the wilds of Arkansas who also make the brooms for Harry Potter World in Florida. I have used these in lots of different settings – large and small ensembles, studio, solo – and every time I’ve marveled at the sound subtlety and dynamic range these brushes draw out from the frame drums.
Theta Shakers
Signature Shakers made by Out of the Drawer Percussion. These shakers were developed for use in quiet settings. They have a very smooth and subtle sound, allowing for integration with instruments like guitar, harp or voice. Also I intend these for use in sound healing, to facilitate exploring body energy and the space around the body, using the style developed in my Shaker Manuals.
