Tell that to bluegrass musicians.

There are other means of providing percussion than just drums... Instruments like Banjo can be used because strumming the strings provides a very percussion like sound, and combine that with a good bassline and you have yourself a beat... Which is why a lot of bluegrass and folk bands don't require a drummer.
