Torpid May

Torpid May, the New York City based trio, is taking their music back to their homeland of Taiwan and Hong Kong between April 4th and 12th for the first time since their inception in 2011. They will kick-off their tour at the 20th annual Spring Scream Festival in Kenting, making their way north to Kaohsiung, Taipei, and closing off by playing two shows in Hong Kong.

Full tour schedule:
4/4 - Spring Scream Festival, Kenting, Taiwan 5:50pm
4/6 - The Mercury Bar, Kaohsiung, Taiwan 8:00pm
4/9 - Revolver, Taipei, Taiwan 8:30pm
4/11 - Sense 99, Hong Kong 10:00pm
4/12 - Fringe Club, Hong Kong 9:30pm

Packed with suspense often leading up to chaotic finales, Torpid May's unique brand of progressive sound is an eclectic interplay between melodic grunge and ambient soundscapes. With lyrics in English, Mandarin and Taiwanese, the band has played extensively throughout the greater New York area, appearing at MEANY Festival, KTF concert at Time Square, Passport to Taiwan at Union Square Park, as well as headline shows at Tammny Hall and Santos Party House for Rock for Hope. - MusicDish

Manhattan, NY (September 21, 2012) - "Music, Sounds Delicious!", listed among the Taiwan Week series event organized by CATUN (Committee of Admission for Taiwan into the United Nations), is going to present Taiwanese hip-hop/indie rock music with famous Taiwanese cuisine on September 21, 6:30pm - 10:00pm, at The Living Room NYC.

The headliners, Miss Ko and Gordon, are two Taipei-based rappers from the growing Taiwanese hip-hop brand: Kao, Inc. Miss Ko, born and raised in Queens, has developed a unique street style which oscillates between English and Mandarin. Her newly released album "Knock Out" makes her not only the first female rapper in Taiwan, but also the only rap artist to ever debut at number one on the charts. Gordon has maintained a stronghold in Taiwan's underground music scene ever since he first joined Kao Inc Records in 2007. His mellow yet graceful flow transforms his music both musically and lyrically.

"Music, Sounds Delicious!" also features two New York based indie bands. The opening band, PaperDoll, can be heard in several major commercials, TV shows, and films. They have brought their infectious dance-rock sound to NY Pride in Central Park and have opened up for OhLand, Mos Def, and Joan Jett. Another Taiwanese-American band, Torpid May, combines elements of pop, grunge, noise, punk and ambient rock. They are a true representation of the Taiwanese indie music scene.

CATUN (Committee of Admission for Taiwan into the United Nations) is a group of Taiwanese Americans who are dedicated to enhance Taiwan's visibility on the international stage. To reach more people, CATUN holds a series of culture events named Taiwan Week. The goal is to introduce Taiwanese culture to Americans through mixers, food, movies, and live music. The concert "Music, Sounds Delicious!" aims to present Taiwanese music and to bring more people to experience Taiwanese culture.
