XIIDO

XIIDO doesn’t perform alone on stage. They connect with the audience—making eye contact, dancing together, and shouting together—turning every performance into something created with the crowd. Even if it’s a song you’ve never heard before or a language you don’t understand, you soon find yourself moving to the rhythm. Every XIIDO show feels like a festival.

On top of the deep brass sound of sousaphone, trombone, and saxophone, the sharp, powerful melodies of traditional Korean instruments like the taepyeongso and piri are layered in, while janggu and drums hold down the groove. Their music moves freely across the boundaries of tradition and modernity, East and West, creating a truly new listening experience.

Recently, XIIDO has evolved toward a more powerful and accessible sound by embracing the rhythm and mainstream appeal of K-pop. They’ve proven their strength as a “band that plays with the audience,” engaging in spontaneous moments with crowds across the world—from Morocco(Visa for Music) and Italy(Napoli World) to China(Chic Festival) and the Czech Republic (Czech Music Crossroads).

XIIDO is always moving forward. No nationality, no language, no genre—only music that connects people in the moment. If you step into their world, you’ll find yourself shouting, dancing, and becoming part of the performance. With the energy of seven artists, the stage becomes one.
