Time for another concert update! Thanks to your generous donations, we are practically at the half way mark! We are just 8 weeks away from the big event, so things are starting to heat up in the practice hall. Of course, we continue to perform at Seattle area events – yesterday we made an appearance at the annual From Hiroshima to Hope event in Green Lake Park.

We also wanted to give the amazingly talented Maria Dost an extra special shout-out! Maria has been designing and producing SKT’s beautiful hapi for the past couple of years and is currently helping us with costumes for the show. Here’s a glimpse of some of the gorgeous work she is doing:

Doesn’t it look great? Thank you so very much Maria!

In just a few weeks, we’ll be sharing the stage with local Seattle band Ravenna Woods http://www.ravennawoodsblog.com/ at the TIMBER! Outdoor Music Festival in Carnation, WA. We’ve had a lot of fun practicing together and we’re very excited for you to hear the fruits of our labor! Come out July 16th for a performance you’re definitely going to remember!
