The Idea of North is teaming up with the world's most incredible jazz vocal percussionist, Kaichiro Kitamura (JAPAN), and bringing this incredible collaboration to Lismore! What Kai can do really does have to be seen - but even then you still won't believe it! Kai is well-known the world over as one of the only people ever to have mastered beatboxing in the jazz style. He performs regularly with his own jazz quartet (piano, bass, vocals) in Japan, as their actual drummer. Yes, his vocal emulation of the instrument is so complete he doesn't need a drum kit.

He's the groove to their jazz, the rock to their roll - an ideal and seamless addition to The Idea of North's joyously varied repertoire. An exciting evening of astonishing vocalisation and heart-warming music - an amazing collaboration in Lismore for the first time.

Don’t miss this rare occasion to experience the magic and wonder of these (now) five voices as they present beautiful, funky, hilarious and moving music for as many of we northern NSWelsh people as can make it along. Come and be moved like you wouldn’t imagine is possible through listening to voices alone!
