Trash Kat Drum Inventor Kevin Reed is a survivor of a traumatic brain injury that initially had a world-renowned neurosurgeon doubting there was any chance for his survival. But after a marathon brain surgery (which removed roughly half of his brain) and 75-day coma, Reed woke up.
A drummer since childhood, Kevin incorporated music into his physical therapy right from the start. Over the past thirteen years he has had to relearn how to walk, talk, read and write - and meanwhile he invented a drum.
Kevin's Trash Kat evolved from about thirty prototypes and a lot of patience. Check out the specs and hear Kevin play in the Gearwire video.
