Hachimitsu Pie & Jim O'Rourke

Opening up proceedings at WWW X, acclaimed Shibuya music joint WWW's new foray into the all-night gig business, this meeting of classic and experimental folk sees Keiichi Suzuki's '70s outfit Hachimitsu Pie team up with multi-instrumentalist Jim O'Rourke and his band for an evening of nostalgic grooves. Re-established in 2015 after more than 40 years of silence, Suzuki's nine-piece gang of oldies is set for quite a challenge from O'Rourke's quintet, which also includes keyboardist Eiko Ishibashi, bassist Toshiaki Sudoh, drummer Tatsuhisa Yamamoto and violinist Atsuko Hatano.
