Evans has been shaping the sound of drummers around the world for over 60 years . With the introduction of the first synthetic drum head in 1956 by Chick Evans , the brand set new standards of advancement and development that changed the drum world forever. By using polymer film instead of conventional leather, a skin was created that had a sound surprisingly similar to that of natural skins and was at the same time resistant to temperature and humidity. Real animal skins are now only used for percussion instruments such as congas or bongos, with which Evans laid the foundation for today's industry standard .
Driven by its own claim to produce the most technologically advanced drum heads in the world, the brand can look back on further innovations such as the patented UV coating process or level 360 technology and has focused on producing high-quality drum heads for more than 60 years , which help drummers solve their tonal problems.
