Tim Joins the SilverFox Family

Posted by The Killdares on Jan 24, 2012

Today we are proud to announce that our own KD frontman/drummer/lead singer Tim Smith has entered into an agreement with SilverFox drumsticks. Since 1982, SilverFox sticks have outperformed competitors in balance, finish, and durability. And in spite of manufacturing for over 23 years, SilverFox is still one of the best kept secrets in the music industry.  With as much touring as we do, Tim needed a stick that was not only comfortable, but also “hits harder and lasted longer” just like the company’s slogan states.  And he found that with SilverFox.  We are proud to endorse SilverFox and welcome them into our family of tour support products.
