The clay construction of LP Udu Drums is based upon centuries-old African traditions. The name “Udu” has been derived from the Nigerian Ibo language, meaning “pottery”. Each LP Udu® Drum offers individual tonal values. They can be played by hitting any part of the drum with the palm of the hand or the finger tips. The textured surfaces provide additional tonal variations by creating rubbing sounds.

Developed by Frank Giorgini and percussionist Jamey Haddad
Rounded low chamber has an alto range; triangular chamber has more bright and transparent sounds; similar to a clay tabla
Each chamber has different textures that allow rubbing sounds to be added to the sound mix.
