 Last weekend Tee Drums supplied the drum drum kits to the 2 main stages of Lakefest 2014. We had a fantastic weekend and met lots of new friends in the process. In supporting the Lakefest festival insured faster turn around time between bands as there was a quality Tee Drums kit on stage which many drummers took the opportunity to play. Some of the Drummers who played Tee Drums at the festival include Danny Farrant of the Buzzcocks, Ade Hill of Doctor and the Medics, Che Beresford of Phoneys and the Freaks, Tim Tolhurst of The Rovin Crows |
