Scha Dara Parr

Veteran rap crew Scha Dara Parr are sometimes described as Japan's answer to the Beastie Boys – a relatively fitting label that still doesn't entirely capture their laidback, fun-filled modus operandi. Their December Liquidroom gig has become something of a tradition already and serves as their one and only solo appearance for 2014. Trusty sidekicks The Cost-Performance provide accompaniment.
