Indie band Hyukoh on N.American tour

Hyukoh has kicked off its North American concert tour.

Starting from Toronto, Canada, on September 8, Hyukoh embarked on its first world concert tour. It is continuing to hold concerts in major North American cities such as Vancouver of Canada, and Boston, New York, Seattle and Los Angeles in the United States.

The quartet met local fans in Vancouver through the Albatross Music Festival staged in the city.

It is the first-ever outdoor music festival of its kind in Vancouver.

World-renowned musicians, including Asian-Canadian and American artists, were invited to the festival to stage their performances.

Hyukoh presented diverse features of K-pop music and garnered popularity not only from ethic Koreans in Canada but also from young local music fans there.

"Artists like them (Hyukoh) is brilliant. Because they really allow you to engage in different styles of music. It has funk, elements of hip-hop, elements of jazz, and elements of rock."

[Christina Kim, festival visitor]
"We knew that they are really good at live performances, but this was just amazing. We were really blown away. It was way better than we expected."
