We are proud to offer a large range of musical instruments, recordings and tuition materials from around the world. Established on two sites in Northern England - our shop in Leeds city centre and our mail order warehouse in the Yorkshire Dales - we have gathered a unique range of global music resources from dozens of suppliers, from small workshops via a Fair Trade co-operative in Ghana, to large European instrument wholesalers. We are a business run by musicians for musicans, so whether you need a top quality Kambala djembe drum, a finely krafted Swedish xylophone, a sweet toned kalimba, a noseflute or a complete Brazilian samba kit we will have studied it, played it, taken it to pieces and put it back together again!
Not that we are claiming to be experts in every field of world music, just enthusiasts keen to make a wider world of music accessible to all, with respect and support to the communities of origin. We also offer background information and tuition materials to help you on your way - tutors for didjeridu, bodhran, bongos, congas, middle eastern daraboukas, Indian tablas, African marimba and mbira, rhythms for surdo, repenique, caixa and timbal and cajon, So we wish you a happy shopping experience at Knock on Wood with sound and video samples to help you with your choices.
