All About That Bass (Drum)!
Donation protected
Established in 2003, the Blazing River Freedom Band is an LGBT and ally concert and marching band located in northeast Ohio.
The band-owned bass drum is even older. The band bought it used on eBay in 2004. Unfortunately, with all its years of wear, the heartbeat of the band is starting to sound like it has an arrhythmia.
The struts are cracking, making it near impossible to replace the drum heads and tune. If the struts break during either of these tasks, the drum will be unusable. To remedy this, the band hopes to replace the entire bass drum and purchase a harness/carrier along with it to use in parades.
The band is looking at investing in a used, higher-quality brand 26" or larger bass drum, with the expectation that they will be able to use it for both concert and marching band performances for many years to come.
Your financial contribution to this exciting change is greatly appreciated!
