TAIKOPROJECT – Past Concerts

TAIKOPROJECT first made waves when they became the first American taiko group to win the prestigious Tokyo International Taiko Contest in 2005, besting all of the Japanese taiko groups in the competition. That year, they were cast in the Mitsubishi Eclipse commercial, the first and still only national advertising campaign to prominently feature taiko. Since then, the group has performed on the 2009 Academy Awards, the 2011 Grammy Awards, NBC's The Voice, Syfy's Face/Off, The X-Factor, and were honored with the prestigious Visionary Award from East West Players. In 2013, TAIKOPROJECT was featured in rock band 30 Seconds to Mars' epic Up in the Air music video and appeared with the band on Conan, Jimmy Kimmel Live, and the iHeartRadio Music Festival.
