Ryosuke Kiyasu is a pioneering snare-drum soloist who has redefined percussion since 2003. Alongside his viral 2018 Berlin set (23 million+ views. also featured by BBC News and VICE), he drums for noise-grind duo SETE STAR SEPT, the Kiyasu Orchestra and co-founded Canada’s cult hardcore unit The Endless Blockade.
From Überschlag—the world’s largest classical-percussion festival—to Finland’s Outsider Art Festival and Dr. Martens Fest, Kiyasu’s 2022-24 itinerary placed him on premier stages across Europe. His performance film at the 2023 Edinburgh Art Festival sparked art-world buzz, while a capsule line with Swedish label Our Legacy pushed his aesthetic into fashion.
With 200-plus releases spanning solo work and band discographies, Kiyasu continues to tour globally, delivering a singular, high-impact blend of extreme dynamics, physicality, and avant-garde vision that has made the snare drum a headline instrument.

Opening act: SCOTT BAZAR
Scott Bazar is a staple of the collective east coast & U.S noise/experimental community. Based in Panama City, Fl, he routinely pushes himself and inspires those around him through forward thinking performances & approaches to form. Whether it be using instruments that already exist, building new playable objects, or finding sonic landscapes in unusual components, no one does quite like Scott.
More opening acts TBA
