On Friday 11th of March, Japan was struck by the most violent earthquake of its history followed shortly by a tsunami wave that has since thrown the country into a state of great devastation.
Quebec is determined to come together and participate in the global effort to provide relief for the Japanese people.
On the initiative of Montreal indie label Kay productions, an amazing show will take place on Wednesday March 23rd, 18.00 pm at Club Soda. The show will gather music performances, humorists and japanese culture.
