Taiko Charleston

Since 2009, when the first group of student drummers gathered under the direction of Tracy Bush, a diverse group of members have come together within Taiko Charleston and close friendships have developed. As Taiko has grown in popularity  in Charleston and the southeast, it has been rewarding to keep up with the interest within the area and numerous requests for performances, workshops, residencies  and artistic collaboration.

 

Taiko Charleston seeks to honor the spirit of joy grounded in a practice of discipline and the innovation arising from respect for tradition that this art form exemplifies.  With heart, soul, and an abiding commitment to mastery, we seek to keep our performances evolving, fresh, heartfelt and  powerful -  to consistently inspire and uplift through our drumming.
