Drum heads wear out, an inevitable fate given the beating they take. The role of a drummer is energetic and physically demanding, some music styles more so than others. When a drum head wears out, tone and power can suffer. That's why it is important to keep drums equipped with the best well-built, durable heads that ensure a reliable sound with each performance.
For most of the drum's history, the head originated from animal hide. In the 1950's, however, Chick Evans developed a polyester drum head, and since then, plastic, a more budget-friendly option and able to withstand long and hard play. The new plastic also allowed for finer tuning capabilities that can transform a thud into a snap.
When shopping for a drum head, it is important to pay attention to thickness and material options. Considered the gold standard for most drums, two-ply heads provide strength, power, and versatility for any musical genre. Some heads, particularly for more exotic drums, are available in synthetic and genuine hide for preserving an authentic sound.
