About the Artists
Peter Horikoshi is a founding member of Yokohama, California, that released a record album in 1977 (re-released in 2016 as a CD). The group wrote and performed songs about the Asian American community and about Asian American experiences. Peter was one of the UC Berkeley co-founders of the East Bay Japanese for Action (EBJA), a community organization that assisted Japanese and Japanese American seniors starting in the 1970’s. EBJA maerged with Eastbay Issei Housing to form the Japanese American Services of the East Bay and is now J-Sei. He and Wendy Horikoshi are founding members of the group Hot Cha, who performed in the 1980’s at various fundraisers for Asian American community organizations in the San Francisco Bay Area. They will be accompanied by special guest Kyle Kashima and together will share music from the Asian American movement from the 1970’s to the present.
