San Jose Taiko

The San Jose Taiko Drummers are really cool!  I have seen them perform at Japanese festivals.  This is a really great video that shows the history of the group, which started in 1973 in San Jose, California, and also discusses the Japantown in San Jose.  I think it is really interesting how they blend rhythms and include instruments from other countries in their music.
