DOO BEE FES

The two day world music festival DOO BEE FES (DBF) was the brainchild of Sadato who as a musician was a hard core world music fan, especially Persian Classical music, Arabic music, West African music, Flamenco, (Desert) Blues, Fado, Japanese classical music (especially Shakuhachi and Shamisen music) and modern jazz.

He partnered with Mr. Nambu who was the President of the Osaka tour agency SMASH Osaka who took care of the logistics, PR, artists’ VISA applications, hotel accommodations, artists contracts and payments,  the stages set up and backlines., etc..

The artists line up was: Warsawa Village Band (Poland), Kilema (Madagascar), OKI and Katoh-Bushi (Japan); and the Tehran Dakar Brothers (Iran)
