POWERFUL DRUMS is dedicated to the pursuit of highest quality African drums and percussion instrument-making for professional and educational use. We deliver African drumming, songs, dance, storytelling, arts and crafts workshops, vibrant music, dance, acrobats and African circus performances paired with the preservation of traditional techniques of African craftsmanship and sharing Ghanaian culture with the world through music and the arts.

Founded in 1998 by Ghanaian musician and instrument-maker, Samuel Nkrumah Yeboah, Powerful Drums are handcrafted by professional West African musicians and instrument makers using the finest materials and at affordable prices, unlike companies on the internet selling substandard African drums actually made in Indonesia, China, India, etc.

In this video presentation, recorded by Drummer Cafe founder/owner, Bart Elliott, during the 2011 Summer NAMM Show in Nashville, TN, Powerful Drums founder, Samuel Nkrumah Yeboah, demonstrates his Kpanlogo drum, and Bart checks out a unique membranophone — a large, tuneable Cajon.
