ENDORSEMENT / ARTIST PROGRAM

Become part of the DR Family.

At DR Customs, we see an artist partnership as a two-way relationship. We work with artists who genuinely believe in our instruments, our craftsmanship and what DR Customs stands for – and who want to actively represent the brand through their music, live shows and social media.

We are a small, independent custom drum manufacturer with limited production capacity. For this reason, we work with a selected number of artists and consider each partnership individually.

What we look for

We are particularly interested in artists who:

• are actively performing and regularly playing live

• typically play around 40 shows per year or more

• genuinely want to play and represent DR Customs

• have an active presence in their musical scene

• create relevant photo, video or social media content

• are interested in a long-term relationship with the brand

The number of shows or followers alone is not what makes a partnership a good fit. We also look at the artist, their musical project, activity and overall potential for a genuine collaboration with DR Customs.

What you can expect from us

Depending on the individual partnership, we can offer:

• special artist pricing on DR Customs / DR Drums

• individual support and direct contact

• custom solutions tailored to your needs

• opportunities for content and product collaborations

• support in developing your personal drum setup

What we expect in return

We don't believe in forced advertising or fixed monthly posting requirements.

What matters to us is that our artists actually play DR Customs, believe in the product and represent the brand authentically.

This can include regular live use, visible DR branding on stage, tagging DR Customs in relevant content and providing photos or videos that we may share on our channels.
