Natal was conceived in 1958 by distinguished British percussionist Alan Sharp. It started when Alan was unable to find the exact instruments he wanted to play and decided to source the individual parts and assembled them himself. His Afro-Cuban bongos were of such high quality that orders began to flood in, eventually leading to the foundation of the Natal Percussion Company in 1965. Continuing Alan’s legacy, the Natal design team have produced a stunning range of drums, snare drums and hardware. Every part and component is designed from the ground up. Natal is committed to producing drums and hardware of the highest standard of quality. As well as being British-designed, Natal drums and hardware are British quality controlled.
