A couple of years ago, I saw the Small Island Big Song project featured on Taiwanese news and decided to check out the entire album as well as the many music and interview videos on their YouTube channel. This project produces and promotes musicians from islands across the Pacific and Indian oceans. Of course, I was thrilled to see that indigenous Taiwanese artists were being prominently featured, such as one of my personal favorites, Sauljaljui.
This weekend in Los Angeles, Saturday February 3rd at 7:30pm, they will perform at Chapman University.
They will be touring across the United States throughout this spring.
