Roots & Rhythm: Shakuhachi & Ghatam in Dialogue

Join us for a unique evening of music, connection, and cultural exchange as five acclaimed musicians come together for an exploration of Japanese, Indian, Latin, and Jazz Fusion.
Featuring shakuhachi master John Kaizan Neptune, ghatam virtuoso Giridhar Udupa, David Neptune on Takeda percussion, Christophe Ambrosino on guitar, and Spencer Hinkle on bass, Roots & Rhythm blends traditions, influences, and improvisation into a rich musical conversation that transcends borders.
Whether you're a longtime world music lover or simply curious to discover something new, we invite you to share this special experience with us.
Roots & Rhythm is independently produced by the Neptune family and Muditā Agency. Thank you for supporting independent artists, self-produced events, and the live music community that makes these cultural exchanges possible.
