ABOUT KI&KI

Ki&Ki is a Tsugaru Shamisen female duo by Hikari Shirafuji and Kanami Takeda.

Both have taken 1st place at Tsugaru Shamisen competitions across the country.
They are not only known in Japan but also overseas, having performed on stages globally.

As Kanami and Hikari originally are from different schools of shamisen training, each carries their own unique character and playing style.
This has helped build a name for them since their debut...

The origin of KIKI (“KI (輝)” means sparkle) comes from their wish to create a sense of “shine” through their uniquely different backgrounds and playing styles of the Tsugaru Shamisen.
