The roots of Premier go back to the golden age of Jazz, when it was founded in London's Soho region by a teaming-up of drummer Albert Della Porta and builder George Smith. Jazz gave Premier drums their debut, and from there they expanded to beat boom drummers, the 1970s punk rock revolution and the modern rock of the '90s, 2000s and now. Finding a stage in so many genres over the years has earned Premier a well-deserved reputation for versatility that can handle any style. Some of the drummers known for playing Premier percussion are Nicko McBrain, Matt Helders, Pat Lundy, Jamie Morrison, Ginger Fish, Doane Perry and Chris Sharrock - and that's just to name a few.
