#Sorry Youth
This power trio was formed by guitarist Weni, bassist Giang Giang, and drummer Chung-Han. Taiwanese lyrics are an important base of their songwriting and a characteristic of the Beat Xie boys. And their song arrangements strongly capture the atmosphere of their live performances. They are one of the few indie bands in Taiwan to write lyrics entirely in Taiwanese. The Beat Xie Boys are currently an important band as a flagship of the Taiwanese indie scene. Their performances are always sold out, and they frequently perform at national and international music festivals such as “SUMMER SONIC” (Japan), “Megaport Festival” (Taiwan), “shima fes SETOUCHI” (Japan), “Mori, Michi, Ichiba” (Japan), and “SXSW” (USA). He has also toured in Japan, Korea, Canada, Hong Kong, and many other countries. In 2020, he is planning to organize his own “Shan Meng Kai Oath” music festival to further explore the possibilities of the collision of music culture and art in Taiwan.
