Full of energy, highly expressive, and possessed of a unique sound, Sakesho is a musical force best witnessed live. By the end of the evening, Sakesho had successfully transformed the usually sedate, supper-club crowd into the cheering participants in a festival of sound. To this listener, that is the ultimate feat of a live performance, and the experience we’re all seeking when we head out the door in search of something new.
