Punjabi instruments contribute to bhangra. Originally this was primarily the [[dhol]]. The 20th century has brought changes to the instruments that define bhangra, to include the [[tumbi]],<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=8O9tua3CjhMC&q=tumbi&pg=PA115|title=Bhangra Moves: From Ludhiana to London and Beyond|last=Roy|first=Anjali Gera|date=2010-01-01|publisher=Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.|isbn=9780754658238}}</ref> [[sarangi]],<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=8O9tua3CjhMC&q=sarangi&pg=PA58|title=Bhangra Moves: From Ludhiana to London and Beyond|last=Roy|first=Anjali Gera|date=2010-01-01|publisher=Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.|isbn=9780754658238}}</ref> [[dholak]] (smaller than the dhol), [[flute]], [[zither]], [[fiddle]], [[Pump organ|harmonium]], [[tabla]], [[guitar]], [[mandolin]], saxophone, synthesizer, drum set, and other Western instruments.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.britannica.com/art/bhangra|title=bhangra {{!}} dance|newspaper=Encyclopædia Britannica|access-date=2017-01-16}}</ref> Perhaps the most famous bhangra instrument is the dhol. It is a double-sided barrel drum that creates the beat to which bhangra is danced. The person who plays the instrument, the dholi, plays various beats to create the different bhangra segments, such as Dhamaal, Jhummar, One side of the dhol has thicker skin, which creates a deeper sound, and the other side has a thinner skin, resulting in a higher-pitched sound. Two sticks are used to play the dhol instrument. The thicker stick, called the dagga, is used to play the bass side. The thinner tilli is used to play the treble side. Both sticks are usually made of wood or bamboo.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://learnbhangra.com/history|title = History}}</ref>
