John Kelin's Jazz Photographs

Boulder Taiko HIBIKI

These photos are from a performance in Boulder, Colorado, World Tibet Day, July 5, 2008.

Boulder Taiko HIBIKI is a traditional Japanese drum group that formed in 2006. (Find out more.) I've seen them perform a bunch of times by now and am always blown away with their energy.

Top picture: Joe Diamo and ensemble director Julia Misawa.

Bottom: Joe on the left, Julia on the right, and Coichi Ewai in the center.
