The group began with a slow-paced folk song, which drew the listeners into their world of melody. The Wasabi group members kept the audience engrossed throughout the show. A young group of instrumentalists in Japan, wanting to continue the traditional folk music styles adding a contemporary flavour to it, got together to form a band.
