Sounds of Okinawa

Synopsis

From the southern islands of Okinawa, Japan, Tink Tink brings the vibrant spirit of Okinawan music to Singapore. Blending traditional Okinawan melodies and instruments with contemporary pop sensibilities, their music carries the warmth, rhythm and beauty of island life.

As part of Crossing Borders 2026, Tink Tink invites audiences to discover a musical culture that transcends language and geography. Through songs, dance and the distinctive sound of the sanshin, they create a lively and welcoming connection between Okinawa and Singapore.
