Matzka are a Golden Melody (Chinese Grammy award)-winning reggae band from Taidong, Taiwan. Composed of lead singer Matzka, drummer Atuhuy, guitarist Sakinu and bassist Alisin, they are members of the Paiwan and Puyuma Taiwanese Aboriginal tribes. Combining the traditional tribal music of their youth with the contemporary reggae, hip-hop, folk, rock and even heavy metal, Matzka create an equally modern and traditional, completely unique “Taiwanese Reggae” sound.
In 2010, Matzka released their first, self-titled album which quickly began making waves in the region. The band won the 2011 Golden Melody (Chinese Grammy equivalent) award for Best Rock Artist, and opened for Guns ‘n Roses in their 2009 tour of Taiwan (really). 2012 saw the band release their sophomore effort 089 in which they experiment with even more genres and rhythm patterns layered over their signature catchy humorous lyrics. Live, the band creates an unforgettable impression as infectious energy rolls off the band and engulfs the audience in a tidal wave of musical joy.
On the occasion of their first performances in Mainland China, Split Works is honored to welcome Matzka to take the stage in Beijing and Shanghai for JUE | Music + Art 2013.

What is JUE | Music + Art Festival?
觉 / JUE (pronounced joo-eh) –verb: to sense; to awaken. JUE | Music + Art is an annual open-source arts and music festival in both Shanghai and Beijing, presented by Split Works. Now in its fifth year, JUE is all about celebrating the best of the local creative communities in these two great cities and inviting artists from around the world to showcase their talent in China. JUE is a collaborative, open-source affair. Each individual event organizer is entitled to set their own entrance fee and to keep 100% of the proceeds. JUE is growing tremendously year-on-year. The 2012 festival drew over 39,000 attendees to 88 events! But we always strive to maintain a strong sense of community, an intimate vibe, and a top-tier selection of artists and events.

Matzka乐团是来自宝岛台湾的雷鬼流行摇滚乐团，你或许曾在《康熙来了》领教过他们的“铁嗓”实力，或许在《国光帮帮忙》里见过他们的和声魅力，也有可能是在金曲奖和MTV颁奖晚会上知道了这支获得最佳乐团和最受欢迎乐团的名字。
由来自台东的原住民Matzka（主唱）、阿胜（鼓手）、阿辉（吉他手）和阿修（贝斯手）组成，Matzka乐团将他们自己从小所受的部落音乐和传统歌谣为影响和主题，结合雷鬼、嘻哈、抒情民谣、另类摇滚甚至重金属等西方音乐风格，创作出了基于日常生活，却又充满部落文化和现代雷鬼音乐元素的独特“台式雷鬼”。
2010年发行了乐团的同名专辑并开始在乐坛崭露头角。睽违两年，他们的第二张创作大碟《﹝089﹞》发行，新专辑曲风多样，题材多元，同时也一如既往地延续了Matzka诙谐幽默的歌词口吻，以及具有深度的歌词内涵。09年曾为Guns ‘N’ Roses做暖场嘉宾，并有过大量的海外演出经验，Matzka乐团的现场演出实力让人印象深刻，乐迷们不仅能感受到这群男子汉们振奋人心的热力激情，也能体会到来自内心深处的强大共鸣，既有舒缓动情的旋律，也有能让你手舞足蹈的雷鬼节拍。
2013年，作为Matzka乐队的首次内地演出，《觉》音乐+艺术节很荣幸能邀请到这支火速窜红的台湾乐队来到北京和上海的舞台上，为所有喜爱雷鬼和摇滚的乐迷们带来令人兴奋的演出体验！
