Let your soul dance to the rhythm of life! Celebrating more than 40 years, Kodo returns to North America with One Earth Tour 2025: Warabe, a thrilling performance that revisits the ensemble’s early repertoire – blending simple forms of taiko expression that highlight its unique sound, resonance, and physicality.

With Warabe, Kodo explores the desire to play the drums with the simple heart of a child. These highly athletic drummers, bearers of a centuries-old Japanese tradition, create a universe of sound and emotion through thunderous percussion and polished theatricality. Capturing the essence of Kodo’s early days, this family-friendly performance celebrates the ensemble’s enduring spirit as children of the drum.

Come and experience the soul-stirring rhythm of life firsthand.
