Yukito Shinra presents the 36th Ichigobin Ticket

Overview

The Ichigobin Live is a highly revered annual cultural concert series presented by legendary Okinawan folk and fusion musician Yukito Shinra (frontman of the iconic Okinawan band Parsha Club). First launched in 1991, this performance is traditionally held on June 23rd to coincide with Okinawa’s Memorial Day (Irei no Hi). The event balances a quiet mindfulness of history with a warm celebration of life, inviting the audience to reflect on the past while immersing themselves in traditional Okinawan melodies.

The term Ichigobin refers to a traditional one-go (180ml) bottle of Awamori—Okinawa’s distinct indigenous liquor. True to its name, this intimate live performance is designed around the concept of sharing good conversation, local island spirits, and raw acoustic music. Backed by the vibrant rhythmic beats of percussionist Sunday, Yukito Shinra blends his masterful, soul-stirring Sanshin (traditional three-stringed lute) work with powerful vocals, evoking a nostalgic breeze that carries listeners back to distant summer days.
