Latin Fire Meets Local Flavor
Get ready for a night of pure musical magic as the Vali Vali Vita Summer Tour brings Latin fire to Cedar's Music and Drink in the heart of Sakae. This Friday promises to be an unforgettable fusion of international talent and local artistry that perfectly embodies Nagoya's vibrant, diverse music scene.
A Night of Musical Fusion
Peruvian guitar virtuoso Vali Cáceres is heading our way, bringing his masterful blend of Latin roots with rock, blues, funk, and soul. This isn't just any touring guitarist – Cáceres has shared stages and recording studios with Peruvian superstar Gian Marco and is currently promoting his captivating 2025 release "Otro Aire." Expect lyrical lead work, infectious rhythms, and guitar techniques that will leave you wondering "how is he doing that?"

Supporting Acts
The evening features an incredible lineup that showcases both international connections and homegrown talent. DK Vita from Hamamatsu bring their Japan-based Latin rock collective energy, complete with Peruvian DNA, tight rhythms, and irresistible sing-along hooks. Their live EP "Sanaruko Lake Sessions" gives you a taste of their dance-floor instincts and infectious energy.

Representing our local scene, KLIKA has been making waves across Chubu and Tokyo with their big, friendly sound and remarkable ability to turn any room into a participatory experience. If you've caught one of their shows before, you already know what to expect – if you haven't, you're in for a treat.
Adding a special local touch to the evening is Lesley Bartlett, a multi-instrumentalist, producer, and longtime pillar of Nagoya's music community. Having Lesley on the bill represents a genuine "only-in-Nagoya" bonus that connects the international touring act with our city's rich local musical community.
Why This Show Matters
The Vali Vali Vita Summer Tour represents everything great about Nagoya's music scene – international connections, cultural fusion, and community collaboration. While this same lineup is hitting Tokyo as part of the tour, Nagoya gets the advantage of experiencing these incredible artists in the intimate, welcoming atmosphere that Cedar's is famous for.
This gig is a celebration of how music transcends borders and bridges communities. Cáceres brings world-class guitar mastery, the supporting acts deliver high-energy performance, and the venue provides that perfect close-quarters experience where artist and audience become one.
The Perfect Friday Night Place
Cedar's has always been the kind of place where good nights turn into great stories. It is where the monthly HAM JAM takes place after all!
Whether you're a longtime follower of Latin music, a guitar enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates great live performance, this show offers something extraordinary. Bring a friend, prepare to dance, and get ready for a night that perfectly captures the international spirit and local warmth that makes our city's music scene so vibrant.
