In a message from the band: “CHTHONIC will be performing at Download Festival in the UK for the second time on Saturday, bringing with them Chai Found Traditional Stringed and Woodwind Orchestra and guest singer Chan Ya-wen. Chai Found is an award-winning band from Taiwan, and six of them will be traveling to the UK with CHTHONIC to perform traditional instruments such as Taiwanese flute, ruan, zheng (also known as “box zither”) erhu, pipa, suona etc. Ya-wen, who sang the song “Kaoru” on CHTHONIC album Takasago Army, will also perform at the festival.
