The Analects say, “Within the four seas, all are brothers.” With their upcoming tour themed “The World Will Be Better²,” Tong Yang Band brings the depth of Chinese traditional culture and the innocence of musical passion to Southeast Asia for the very first time, weaving strands of Eastern friendship into Bangkok’s lively cityscape, Singapore’s multi-cultural blend, and the rainforest rhythms of Kuala Lumpur. This is not Tong Yang’s first time measuring the world with music. They have left their mark in British underground bars, shouted for freedom on North American highways, engaged in poetic conversations with the Japanese concept of mono no aware, and resonated with the natural spirituality of Australia and New Zealand. Always on the move, Tong Yang collides Eastern rock philosophy with cultures across the globe. Now, the warmth and inclusiveness of Southeast Asia will add a vivid new stroke to their musical map. Following tours in North America, Europe, the UK, Japan, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, Tong Yang’s “The World Will Be Better²” is set to begin its Southeast Asian chapter, inviting music lovers to join them for a tropical musical fest in the region.
