Established in 1993, with the dream of creating the best show in the world using
“Wadaiko (Japanese Drums)”, the instrument which has a very rare and unique
variety of sound expressions. DRUM TAO set their base at Oita, Japan and
started creating their own music, stage set-ups, and costumes to produce their
one and only world of entertainment. Many talented artists and staffs gathered
to join this creation from all over the world and this is why DRUM TAO can make
the peerless and most modern “JAPANESE ENTERTAINMENT.”
