Jade Music Fest Showcase presents Concurrent
Music is like the flow of the ocean currents, bringing us from our different roots together along a shared journey. This showcase brings together four artists with Taiwanese backgrounds, coming together an ocean away. How far do our roots take us, and how far can we stretch with our mother tongues to guide us?
Chynna Lewis is a Taiwanese immigrant who creates music that reflects her soul and offers refuge to everyone who has similar experiences of trying to fit into a new language and new country.
Joyin Wang is a Hakka singer from Taiwan. Her sweet appearance and sweet voice add layers to her creative style, as she sings in her mother tongue.
Kapa Arkieh is an Amis-Canadian who grew up in Vancouver. His hip-hop verses and versatile range highlight his exploration of his heritage and upbringing.
Theseus is an up-and-coming indie band with music that hopes to comfort this generation’s youth. Their bilingual lyrics in Mandarin and Taiwanese capture the nostalgia of childhood and hope for the future.
Grab your friends and your dancing shoes because JMF is inviting you to a dance party! This showcase is bursting with talents from all ends of the musical spectrum.
