It didn’t look like much, but that was the first step to crafting the perfect set of chimes. When asked about the early days of Tree Works, Mitch replies, “I wasn’t trying to start a company. I was trying to find a sound. ” Since then Tree Works Chimes has grown to become the most respected chimes in the percussion world – used by top studio and touring drummers and percussionist as well as the top 24 drum corps.
