I’ve road tested the new Cymbal & Gong Janavar crash cymbals. Sounding lovely and bright. I’ll be using the 18” and 20” along with a 24” American series ride and hi hats. Im taking the smallest kit I have on the road which is a British Drum Co IMP. Ludwig black beauty 14x5 snare, Vintage Premier wood block. I’ll be using a Roland SPD pad to trigger some keys and synths on some songs. Protection Racket cases. Snareweight #5 brass dampener with one 70s insert.

Welcome Sonny Flint Drummer to our roster of endorsing artists! It's an honor to have you aboard - thanks for your support!

🌟 Big News! 🌟

I’m incredibly proud and honored to officially join the Cymbal & Gong family as an endorsed artist!

For quite some time now, every cymbal you’ve heard me play — both live and in the studio — has been a Cymbal & Gong. Their instruments continue to inspire me every time I sit behind the kit. The depth, character, and musicality of these cymbals are unmatched — complex yet controlled, vintage in spirit yet perfectly suited for modern music.

About Cymbal & Gong:
Founded in Portland, Oregon, Cymbal & Gong is a small American company dedicated to producing truly handcrafted cymbals with character and soul. Working closely with artisan Turkish cymbal smiths, they blend traditional techniques with careful hand-selection and tuning to ensure every cymbal is unique, musical, and inspiring.

Whether it’s their Holy Grail series (inspired by the golden era of Turkish cymbal making), the darker and more complex Meridian series, or the lush, versatile Custom series, Cymbal & Gong offers a wide range of sounds that speak to the heart of every drummer looking for that perfect tone.

I’m deeply grateful to Cymbal & Gong for welcoming me into their artist roster, and I can’t wait to keep exploring these beautiful instruments on stage and in the studio.

Stay tuned — lots of exciting things ahead! 🎶🥁✨

Today, we have been enjoying “Be Still,” last summer's release from C&G artist Wayne Smith Jr. Among lots of good reviews, All About Jazz aptly describes it as “A powerful venture in emotion and tranquility.” Released by the Blue Collar label, it is widey available for purchase and streaming. Thank you, Wayne, for sharing this beautiful music with the world!
