New T-Shirt Design
Zenshin Daiko will have a new t-shirt for 2002. Members were asked to submit a design to be considered for the t-shirt. The chosen design is by Preston Jones. It shows a child playing a taiko and the outline of the island of Maui. FAQ's About ZD Do you have to be Japanese to play taiko with Zenshin Daiko? No, although most of Zenshin Daiko’s members are of Japanese ancestry, there are members of many different racial backgrounds including; Filipino, Portuguese, Hawaiian, Caucasian, Korean and Chinese.
