Toca Percussion - Toca Sheila E Signature Series Congas and Bongos
A force to be reckoned with, Sheila E. is a true prodigy on percussion, with scintillating solo work and performances with top artists including Prince, Diana Ross, Beyoncé, Babyface, Jennifer Lopez, and Ringo Starr.The trilogy of Congas, Bongos, and Timbales speaks to her spiritual values that transcend her acknowledged mastery of percussion and drumset. Toca is committed to being green and environmentally-friendly. The wood we use is harvested from a plantation in Thailand, where our drums are then lathed and handcrafted by local musicians. This carefully managed resource is much easier on the environment than wood taken from primary forests.
