Taiko Drumming · San Francisco Bay Area
Founded in 2005, Drum Revolution is an electrifying taiko ensemble based in the San Francisco Bay Area, known for blending traditional Japanese taiko drumming with modern, innovative rhythms and choreography. Rooted in cultural tradition yet forward-thinking in its approach, Drum Revolution brings a fresh, diverse spirit to the local arts scene, creating a pulse that resonates with the Bay Area's rich multicultural landscape. Whether in festivals, community events, or intimate concerts, they ignite the stage with passion and unity, embodying the heart of a true musical revolution.
Drum Revolution has grown into one of the largest taiko groups in the San Francisco Bay Area, offering classes and workshops in six locations: Emeryville, Millbrae, Palo Alto, Los Altos, Milpitas, and Los Gatos. The group performs all over the Bay Area, with major appearances at the San Francisco Cherry Blossom Festival, the Cupertino Cherry Blossom Festival, the Millbrae Japanese Culture Festival, for the Oakland Earthquakes, at the Rugby World Cup Sevens, and for various festivals, firms, schools, and cities across the Bay Area.
Drum Revolution operates throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. Find a studio near you and join a community of drummers committed to the art and power of taiko.
