Event Duration: 180 minutes
In the middle of the hustle and bustle of Tokyo city, the group call themselves a Neo-Tribe representing their pride in the Japanese heritage, spirit and tradition.
Playing a unique blend of past and present styles, their music has been influenced by foreign genres and styles such as the blues, jazz, afro-Cuban and psychedelic rock, which has then been cleverly combined with the time-honoured traditional Japanese instruments.
Their songs stimulate the senses with nostalgic harmonic vocals and poetic lyrics. magro is both an evolving folklore, as well as a musical representative of the modern Japanese’s spirit and heart.
