Applying more than 40 years of experience as a drummer, dealer and sales director for top companies such as Sabian, Yamaha, Tycoon, MARS and Mountain Rhythm, David Kelley launched Kelley Percussion 3 years ago — establishing new levels of service and selection in percussion distribution. In 2015, Kelley added acoustic guitars and amplifiers to his product mix and, to reflect his expansion and growth, he has recently rebranded the company as Kelley Distribution.
Kelley currently offers the handcrafted, Italian line of Eko acoustic guitars and the advanced line of Acus acoustic guitar amplifiers made in Greece. He is also the exclusive North American distributor for Schlagwerk Cajons, Izzo Brazilian percussion, Traps lightweight, portable, single-headed drumsets, Gewa drum cases, Sky Gel damper pads and Akai karaoke machines. Kelley’s other main lines include Cymbag, Cympad, TRX and CRX cymbals, Direct Sound headphones, Yamaha accessories and The Lift bass drum pedal dock as well as Vater, Innovative, Regal Tip and Mike Balter drumsticks, brushes and mallets.
"Our rebranding reflects our growth and the new opportunities that exist for niche manufacturers and niche distributors to be successful in today’s international music market," says Kelley.
