KAO=S is Japanism Art Rock Band that member are Kaori “Lady Samurai” Kawabuchi;Vocal / Sword performance, Jack ; Tsugaru Shamisen and Shuji Yamagiri ; Acostic Guitar / Vocal. KAO=S was founded in Tokyo, in April 2011. Out of the turmoil that followed the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, the band distilled a new style of Japanese art to bring to the world, which it termed ‘chaos’ or, following the Japanese pronunciation, KAO=S (‘Kah-oss’). KAO=S’ sound is a blend of vocals and acoustic guitar, overlaid with traditional Japanese instruments such as the threestring Tsugaru shamisen, using a full range of effects. Complemented by Kaori’s spellbindingly powerful sword dance, KAO=S quickly caught people’s attention. In 2012, KAO=S was invited to perform at SXSW2012, and the band embarked on a nationwide U.S. tour. In 2013, KAO=S performed at SXSW again.
