ABSTRACT:
A suspension band musical drum system is provided allowing for the free vibration of the shell in response to vibrations from the drum head. A suspension band encircling the drum shell connects the hoops holding the drum heads in place without necessitating any piercing of the drum shell. The suspension band has a spacer ring attached to its inner surface. The spacer ring engages a slotted channel in the drum shell.
