ABOUT THE PERFORMERS
One of the Midwest’s premiere taiko groups, Ho Etsu Taiko draws from traditional Japanese musical styles and a broad variety of contemporary music to create a uniquely Chicago sound with global roots.
Hailing from Los Angeles, the On Ensemble is led by childhood friends Shoji Kameda and Masato (Maz) Baba. The Ensemble has made a name for itself by infusing the powerful rhythms of taiko with overtone singing, odd meter grooves and soaring melodies.
PARKING: There are two paid parking lots and limited street parking. Parking lot fees are $2 per hour with a maximum of $6, good until 2am. Metered parking on Lincoln Ave is also available for $2 per hour for 2 hours at a time.
