Elliott is a traditionalist and perfectionist when it comes to his precious djem-babies. He uses nothing but the best djembe shells imported from West Africa, skins (goat or cow), the best steel rings and the highest quality ropes- all put together at his workshop in Billinudgel, Northern NSW.

Torque’n the Drum is a team of dedicated craftsmen who have perfected the art of building each drum to reach its potential. Tiago and Jeremy, choosing to make the Northern Rivers their home, work hard to deliver your djembe timely and with loving attention.
