"Canton Express" Wu Tiao Ren 2023 North American Tour Officially Announced

The red plastic bag crossed the Pacific Ocean and floated over the American sky. Canton Express can be the name of Chinese fast food or an artistic action. Perhaps it is the rhythm of global diaspora and guerrilla warfare created by a Guangdong rock band that has released nine albums between pop culture and contemporary art. From Canton Pop to Canton Folk to Canton Rock, Wu Tiao Ren has always been a local specialty of the "global local" and a southern love song of the "global South". They are the mutant rebirth of the hit songs of Hong Kong and Taiwan at the end of the last century, and the rumination and counterattack of the pirated generation against European and American rock. They brought Tom Waits to trade Hong Kong paper on the streets of Haifeng and brought Frank Zappa to race on the viaduct in Guangzhou. Now they are playing music and singing all the way, carrying Cao Cao, ancient generals, and our ancestors, across the ocean to see some of the American scenery and become part of the American scenery. They are who they are, Wu Tiao Ren is like...
