Taikoz's “The Gathering”

Featuring Riley Lee, Grand Master of shakuhachi
Timothy Constable, percussion virtuoso
With ancient practice at its core, TaikOz is a high-energy ensemble renowned
for its physicality and spirit.
The group's unique fusion of Japanese ritual drumming and western percussion
music will propel you on a transcendent journey through exotic sound worlds,
with the ethereal and translucent sounds of shakuhachi, performed by Grand
Master Riley Lee, contrasting dramatically with the exhilarating thunder of
the taiko drums.
Each member of the ensemble use their entire bodies in a display of collective
precision and athleticism, producing a visual delight, with powerful pounding
magical sounds.
The Gathering will feature guest artist Timothy Constable from Synergy Percussion,
adding a new dimension to the group and raising its expressiveness and power
to explosive new levels.www.taikoz.com/
“ Thrilling yet tender, disciplined yet wild, full of deep reverence and
gentle larrikinism, this show took the TaikOz ensemble to a new level of genuinely
musical theatricality and impressiveness.”

Musician/activist Xavier
Rudd’s latest album Dark Shades
of Blue is released in Australia on August 16th and in support of this, his
seventh album, Xavier will be embarking on a month-long Australian tour,
including Rockhampton on November 18.
Loud and psychedelic, Dark Shades of Blue highlights a side of Xavier Rudd
merely hinted at on earlier releases. The guitar-driven songs, mixed by Joe
Barresi (Tool, Queens of the Stone Age), are more complex and rocking than
what audiences perhaps expect from the lifelong surfer and Dave Matthews
tour mate. Yet fans will not be disappointed, for the new direction still
holds true to Rudd’s passion for mixing rock and folk with indigenous
instruments and other voices.
