Good drum shop
Nice selection and knowledgeable staff. I ended up having my djembe repaired and they did a great job.

Friendly, lowkey, competent instruction
I have taken djembe classes from five different instructors at DrumConnection over the past three years and all have been excellent teachers. I have heard them all perform in concert and will say that to my ear, they are a talented group of musicians who really enjoy playing.There is a class for children on Sundays and the business invites professional drummers from Guinea and other West African countries to do workshops on weekends. Prices are reasonable for classes and workshops. The store itself has a large inventory of professional level percussion instruments that includes everything from bongos and drum kits to congas and African marimbas.
