Shawn McNamara (CEO/Creative Director)

When Shawn started Vintage Logos, over 20 years ago, it was a small one man operation that made custom drumheads for local bands.Ā  Today, Vintage Logos has grown into a band branding experience, creating: drumheads, speaker grill cloths, banners and more for bands across the world.

Vintage Logos is proud to have worked with, Universities, Military Bands, Rock & Roll Hall of Famers and even The Rock & Roll Hall of fame its self.Ā  Although Vintage logos has grown and much has changed over the years, one thing has remained the same, Vintage Logos is a Family owned company that puts an emphasis on, as Sean would say, ā€œgiving people a custom handmade product that they loveā€.

Shawn is a family man. He enjoys spending time with his wife Jennifer and is two children, Bella and Brayden. Together, Shawn and Jennifer have seen the world together and built a business.

When Shawn is not producing drumheads or spending time with his family he is experimenting with and adding to his extensive audio equipment collection.

Q: If you could be in any band what band would you be in?

A: “I would be the drummer for Van Halen.”

Drummers, Artists, and More!

Who are we?

Vintage logos Inc. has been designing and producing custom drum heads since 1997. We provide trademark images for drummers, marching bands, and musical groups alike. We pride ourselves in excellent customer service, product knowledge, and top-notch quality products. For us this is not a job, but rather a passion. For years and years bands have struggled to set themselves apart from the hundreds of other musicians around the world. But little do some know we can make that process so much easier for them!

Our dedication to drummers.

How did we get started? Take a look atĀ  Vintage Logos the First Years, our founder Shawn took $50 and a dream and has created this company that stands today! Now we offer more products than before and are getting ready to launch more! We pride ourselves in the excellent custom drum heads and banners we make; they’ve been featured on national television and at local marching parades all around. Our quality has been tried and tested and we are confident that not only will you love your designed drumhead, our quality will also last you from gig to gig.

More to look for.Ā 

We’re so excited to announce some new products coming up soon! Just like our site now, you will have a DIY builder so YOU can be the designer! We are the only custom drumhead producer in which you can completely design your drumhead seamlessly on our website. How amazing is that?! We want to continue assisting drummers and artists to start their journey and branding themselves in every way that we can. That’s why we will continue to create the most quality products for our customers, because we know how hard it is to be in the music industry.

Our Mission

We strive to keep our customer in mind every step of the process. When you place your order on our website it’s sent directly to us. The same people who write these blog posts, design and produce your custom drum head. We are a team and a family that wants to continue working hard for our customers so that they can grow their brand as well as us growing ours! We appreciate all of you.

Vintage Drum Heads - VintageLogos

In 1997 I started Vintage Logos in my parents basement with $50 and an idea. At the time I was really into the music scene and had just bought a 1960s Rogers drum kit. It looked and sounded sweet but something was missing. I wanted the kit to have a vintage look, just like the drumheads used by Buddy Rich and Gene Krupa. So I made a custom Bass Drum Shield Logo for myself and a friend. His friend saw it on his drum kit and was like “How can I buy one?” I had found my product and it was cool!

Drum Show Photos - VintageLogos

The photos above are from vintage drum shows we attended. Vintage Logos criss crossed the country for a few years doing trade shows and selling to vintage drum collectors.Ā We went to Los Angeles, Boston, Pennsylvania, Chicago, Nashville, Ohio and Kentucky. Some of these places 3 or 4 times. Vintage drums were big and we were the place to get bass drum logos.

In 2001 we were the first company to specialize in full color printed drumheads that you could actually order online. At that time we offered stock designs and allowed customers to send artwork for a total custom drumhead.

Over the years we have done work for Cheap Trick, Dead & Company, Tesla, Big & Rich,Ā The Brian Setzer Orchestra and thousands of working drummers from all over the world. We have shipped to some obscure places too like Iceland,Ā Tahiti and Kazakhstan. The internet has really made the world a smaller place but also allows all drummers and musicians to buy a quality American Made product.
