Concert: Foodman Opener: Yolo Ono

Asian Arts Initiative, Vine Street, Philadelphia, PA, USA 1219 Vine Street, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Foodman (食品まつり/Takahide Higuchi) is a Japanese electronic producer, DJ, and painter. He has been releasing music since 2011 and is based in Yokohama.

This extends to his remixes
