e-zuka announced in his blog today that they’ve been rehearsing for a show with bamboo flute player Kinohachi that will take place in Beijing in the middle of June.

e-zuka has apparently known Kinohachi for many years (he shares some older blog entries from 14 years ago where the two of them were together in Tokamachi).

Eagle-eyed fans may also recognize – KIJI – as the fox-masked shamisen player from the Y.W.F. live at Fuji Q back in 2012.

Kinohachi’s website lists a tour option from Japan to Beijing. Details can be seen here.

Details

Performers:  KinoHachi (shakuhachi),  – KIJI – (shamisen), Takeuchi Jun (violin), Iizuka Masaaki (guitar), Takita Isamu (bass), Takayama June (keyboard) & Yoshihisa
Ichikawa (drums)
Date:  June 16, 2018
Time:  Doors Open @ 18:30 / Show Starts @ 19:30 (CST)
Venue:  Chinese National Library Center for the Arts  (No. 33 South Street, Zhongguancun, Haidian District, Beijing, China)

Takita’s spring plans

Takita posted in his blog today that he will be going into the studio to record for himself in April, and will have another Rising Moon tour in early June. He did not specify that there would be a new CD, but we can hope! Plus, this implies there will be no Granrodeo tour before mid-June at the earliest.

He did add that the tour will get no further west than Osaka, so those of us in western Japan will have to go east to see the Rising Moon shows.
