Cicala Mvta (pronounced shikala moota) are one of Japan’s most exciting and original groups. Like other innovative musicians, their music is hard to define; “punk chindon jazz”, “world and noise band to clarinet in a chindon group. Colorful chindon groups used to be a common sight in Japan, marching in the streets noisily banging a chindon drum, while saxophones or clarinets would pick out the melody to the hits of the day.
These are photos from concerts where Cicala Mvta played, so they may be of other bands that played the concert as well.
