Every End is a New Beginning

After almost ten months' worth of bonding, practicing, performing, building new equipment, traveling to new places, and making collegiate taiko history, Bakuhatsu is sad to say that the 2016-2017 season is over with our last practice of the school year last night.

Also, a special shout out to our member Hiroya Mizobe who is heading back to Japan soon and who we'll miss very much!

The school year may be over, but Bakuhatsu doesn't give up on taiko that easily (or at all). The team will be back at it again with summer practices and performances resuming shortly after finals end. While we will be missing some members who are leaving Davis soon and will say goodbye to graduates as they leave Davis, we still have the summer full of song learning and performing to look forward to!
San Jose Obon, July 8-9
Bakuhatsu is incredibly honored to have been asked back for another year in a row to perform at our biggest performance of the summer, San Jose Obon—a festival where "generations of families and friends come together and enjoy a rich cultural experience in one of the three remaining Japantowns in the United States." There will be games, food, taiko performances from various groups, and lots of dancing. We can't wait to join in on the festivities and also perform on Sunday, July 9th!
