Seven years ago, the lead singer of the Beijing indie band Carsick Cars, Zhang Shouwang (pictured), was just a teenager trying to find his way in the world. A few years later, the band joined Sonic Youth for their European tour, and the 26-year-old Zhang, who also founded the experimental noise band White, has become one of the country's most dynamic young rock stars. Zhang will join four other young Chinese indie musicians, including Fu Xiao, Yan Yulong and Zhou Qian, to perform at the Ullens Center For Contemporary Art's electronic music concert. This show highlights some of the emerging leaders of this movement, in and from China, with pure instrumental works, visual projections and live performances with electric guitars.
6 pm, March 3. UCCA The Space, UCCA, 798 Art District, 4 Jiuxianqiao Road, Chaoyang district, Beijing.
