KAZUTOKI UMEZU KIKI BAND - AMATSU-KITSUNE

August 2013, I saw Kazutoki Umezu and his Kiki Band perform at Zappanale. Goosebumps.
This year, they came back to Zappanale. Expectations were high, but they delivered. And how.

The band also brought copies of their soon-to-be released album, "Amatsu-Kitsune", with them.
"Amatsu-Kitsune" is the sixth album on their Zott record label. Their previous one, "Coyote", got released in 2010 !

Compositions by Natsuki Kido, Takeharu Hayakawa and Kazutoki Umezo.
Odd tempo changes, quirky melodies,... I love it.
The odd one out is 'Euroydike', an acoustic tune with a lot of folk influences.

Here's the Kiki Band at Zappanale, one month ago.
