Bone Yard Drums
A Hothouse Rehearsal Studios
Partner Profile

Bone Yard Drums and Hothouse Rehearsal Studios have been working together since Bone Yards’ owner Pat Cottle and I first met. I can’t tell you how long Pat and I have known each other it seems like I’ve always been friends with Pat. It’s one of those cool, easy friendships.

I do remember the first time I met Pat. I heard this really fine drumming emanating from one of the studios, so as I often do, after his session completed, I complimented him on his drumming technique. During that conversation I learned not only could Pat play a set of drums he also had a vast knowledge about drum repair and maintenance.

Well, up until this time I was maintaining all the drum kits here at the Hothouse. If you haven’t maintained a drum kit before, (cleaned it, put new skins on it, tuned it, etc…) then you probably don’t realize, it takes hours of time to go through just one kit. So I asked Pat if he’d be interested in taking on this task.

At first Pat was changing the heads and maintaining the drums here at Hothouse Studios exclusively. One day he came to me with the initial idea for Bone Yard Drums. I thought it was a wonderful idea. We started brainstorming that very day and I’ve been honored that Pat has sought my advice in these early developmental stages of Bone Yard Drums.

Now Bone Yard Drums has burst onto the drum rental, drum cartage, drum repair and restoration scene and this rapid growth is being fueled by two things; Pat’s honesty and integrity. Hothouse Studios seconds that motion.
