THE HOME OF BURNIE TAIKO DRUM GROUP

Hikaru Taiko


Our Drums.

When our group first started, we borrowed drums from Hobart's taiko Drum group.

But more recently we have built a number of our own drums.

These include the large, barrel-shaped Nagado drums, as well as some smaller rope drums called Okedo.

For more information on how to create one of these drums, or to purchase one, contact Simon at simon@taikodrum.com.
