Kodo “Calling” Japan Tour

Every Kodo member has more than just taiko playing in common.
Each and every one of us followed our heart to a remote place where we could devote ourselves to playing taiko: Sado Island.
Young and headstrong, we left convenience and familiarity behind us to dive headfirst into relentless training and a communal rural lifestyle.
We came to Sado to focus on living, learning, and creating, surrounded by nature and rich culture.
We stayed to further Kodo’s mission.

We give our absolute all to playing the drums, always striving to create better sound.
Sound that moves people like never before.
It’s a never-ending pursuit.
An insatiable quest.
This is our calling.
