We're teaming up with the world's most incredible jazz vocal percussionist, Kaichiro Kitamura (JAPAN) for an Australian tour this May. 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 our jazz, the rock to our roll - an ideal and seamless addition to our varied repertoire. An exciting evening of astonishing vocalisation and heart-warming music, all presented with TION's endearing and WYSIWYG style. Don't miss this great collaboration. We know you'll love it as much as we do.

"The Idea of North is such a rare group of talented, passionate people. They live to sing a cappella and they have been doing it together for twenty years. It is a privilege to call these extraordinary people friends, an inspiration to watch them work and a blessing we can all share to experience a little bit of heaven on earth every time they sing." - James Morrison.

"This a cappella outfit can't put a foot wrong... Critic's rating: 10/10" - Sun Herald, Sydney

"...measured and absorbing. Like ABBA dipped in velvet." - Sydney Morning Herald

"...If there is a finer a cappella group in Australia, I'm looking forward to hearing them." - The West Australian
