ProMark

The ProMark company was founded in 1957 by Herb Brochstein, a professional drummer and drum shop owner. ProMark has always been a family business and so continues with the 2011 purchase by D’Addario & Company from Herb’s son Maury. 

ProMark uses only un-endangered wood in the manufacturing of its sticks and mallets. The harvesting of their hardwoods is carefully controlled, with replenishment of the forest as one of the top concerns.  Prior to becoming drumsticks, the wood goes through a multitude of selection and pre-finishing processes at their own mill in the mid-south, followed by rigorous inspections throughout the manufacturing process.

ProMark has been the sticks of choice by such renowned artists as Neil Peart, the late Elvin Jones, Ringo Starr, Phil Collins, Mike Portnoy, 9-time DCI champion Concord Blue Devils, and many, many more.
