Kazha
One of my friends (Asaki Oda, of Loco Roco Nursery fame) has a younger sister, Kazuha Oda, who started a band in Japan called Kazha. The band is doing their first tour in America and started off in the Bay Area so a group of us went and saw her this weekend.
They were playing as part of the Asian Heritage Street Celebration. The other bands were good, too. But Kazha really went all out and it was tons of fun! So if you happen to be in any of the following cities, check them out:
