Drum circles and music therapists find it a favorite, too.
Rock, street bands, Dixieland, jazz groups and more have all enjoyed the Trash Kat™ sound in both studio and live performances.

Hear the Difference...
If tuned low and played with mallets, the Trash Kat™
sounds similar to timpani. Some drummers tune it tighter
and play with sticks to get a embellished floor tom sound. Click on "Hear the Difference" to hear a
mp3 sound clip contrasting a
snare with the deep resonance of a Trash Kat drum. (Please note that
the sound quality of the clip is dependent upon the quality of your
speakers.)
- See the
Difference... A three-dimensional frequency
analysis displays the complex distribution of the Trash Kat's™
distinctive sound as compared to a standard floor tom.
