Blending the hauntingly versatile traditional Chinese violin (ErHu) with modern American Rock & Roll - meet The Hsu-nami!

Blazing the stages of the New York city area with their fiery brand of progressive rock, The Hsu-nami has been building a name and gaining fans since its inception in 2005 with an explosive live show and exceptional musicianship. Behind two independent releases, "Entering the Mandala" (2007), and "The Four Noble Truths" (2008), The Hsu-nami has put together an impressive series of significant performances, including headlining festivals in New York City, Philadelphia PA, Boston MA, St Louis MO, Seattle WA Vancouver B.C, and Toronto ON, as well as playing New York's Citi Field (cap. 42, 000) and Times Square. They have also shared the stage with major acts, both domestic and international: Yellowcard (USA), Nightmare of You (USA), Bowling for Soup (USA), Cthonic (Taiwan), Van Fan (Taiwan), Dazzle Vision (Japan) and High and Mighty Color (Japan).
