Fubuki Daiko

For over 20 years, Fubuki Daiko’s members have been bringing the art of taiko (Japanese drumming) to schools throughout Manitoba. Trained by Grandmaster Seiichi Tanaka, the father of North American taiko, the group has thrilled audiences throughout Canada, the United States, Mexico and Poland with their musicianship, humour, and sheer physical stamina.
Collaborations with a wide range of groups – including Ron Paley’s Big Band, the Winnipeg Singers, the Moses Mayes Family Funk Band, and the Northern Plains Ballet – continue to fuel their quest for excellence and innovation in this ancient art form. Their debut CD received a Prairie Music Award for Outstanding Instrumental Recording.
