JODAIKO 女太鼓 

Our performance combines a mix of traditional and contemporary taiko styles and pieces, expressing our passion, power, and joy. Founded in 1988 to provide a creative outlet for women performing with the confines of a then largely male-dominated cultural tradition, Jodaiko now embraces artists of varying identities who share a passion for wadaiko. Following the custom of returning for the hometown matsuri, Jodaiko members gather together for Powell Street Festival to celebrate, cut loose, eat, and drum!
