FREE LECTURE & CONCERT - The Past Can Be Changed: How RADWIMPS Drummer Satoshi Yamaguchi Reclaimed Music Through Neuroscience Research and Voice-Controlled Drums
In this powerful lecture-performance, Satoshi Yamaguchi shares his deeply personal journey after losing the ability to play drums due to Musician’s Dystonia—a career-ending neuromuscular disorder that forced him into silence for nearly a decade. Refusing to give up, he turned to research and technology collaborating globally to better understand the condition. The event culminates in a live performance using a voice-controlled drumming system he co-developed, offering a moving testament to resilience, creativity, and the ways innovation can restore both sound and hope.
About the Speaker: Satoshi Yamaguchi is the drummer of Japanese band RADWIMPS and a Visiting Researcher at Keio University. He began his musical career as a teenager and performed as the drummer of RADWIMPS, a popular Japanese band that gained international acclaim for composing the soundtrack of award-winning anime movie Your Name (Kimi no Na wa). In 2009, he developed Musician's Dystonia, a neurological disorder affecting motor control, and was forced to suspend his drumming career in 2015. In 2021, he began participatory research on dystonia as a Visiting Researcher at Keio University. During a two-month research residency at Stanford University Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics in 2023, he gained insights that led to the 2024 co-development of VXD, a voice-controlled drumming system, with Yamaha. In 2025, he  launched a solo tour, The Past Can Be Changed, returning to live performance for the first time in a decade.

Dramafest
The Hart House University of Toronto Drama Festival is a competitive festival intended to provide an encouraging platform for the development of student talents, promotion of creativity and the recognition of excellence in theatrical performance and production. The festival provides an opportunity for U of T students from all campuses to compete for fun and adjudicated awards.
Closing out the night is our production of Harlow’s Rhesus Monkey!!
Synopsis:
Lila (late 20s) finds herself back in Toronto for a conference. She tells us about all the reasons she’s not happy to be back but the truth is it’s not the city she’s anxious about. It’s one person. Her mom: Ana. Harlow's Rhesus Monkey explores difficult questions around childhood sexual trauma and parent-child enmeshment and questions the societal norms that push women into unsafe situations. This memory play hinges on Lila’s ability to self-evaluate her needs and wants to make difficult decisions for herself.
Schedule for Night 1:

Trinity College Dramatic Society - The Watsons
United Nations Student Association - The Snail
SMC Troubadours - Harlow's Rhesus Monkey

Lia Pappas Kemps - For Lia Pappas-Kemps, expressing herself through art has always been second nature. This is evident in the confident, natural flow of the Toronto-born singer’s new emotionally unsparing, sensuous and playful debut EP, Gleam. On the project, which she wrote between ages 16 and 19, she sounds fully formed, demonstrating influences from throwback alt-rock to ’70s troubadours to modern indie rock but never truly resembling anyone but herself. The EP begins with “Star,” a psych-rock anthem with an alt-rock slant somewhere between mid-’90s Radiohead and Alanis Morissette. Songs like “Star” and “All Mirrors” are among the more recent compositions on the project, the latter showcasing her deft chops with its winding, ear-catching chord progression and visceral vocal performance. Raised in Toronto, Pappas-Kemps started sharing her songs and covers of other artists she admired on social media in her late teens. In 2021 and 2022, the 20-year-old musician announced herself through a series of singles, including the grunge-inflected “Jinx” and the gorgeous, swooning ballads “Sad in Toronto” and “Object at Best.” She views Gleam as a fragmented love letter to her teenage years. The project also traces her progress while finding her songwriting voice. But nothing about the EP is underdeveloped. Instead, every track plots a crystalline moment in an engaging coming-of-age story—one that will feel compelling for anyone for whom desire has felt as heavy as the weight of the world. / Instagram

We will do our best to accommodate. info@lettheelephantsdance.comA note from Michelle...Creating Let The Elephants Dance was never something I saw coming, never something I planned, or dreamed of. However, it became something so special and has shaped me in ways I never knew were possible. In September 2015, my beautiful cousin Laura died by suicide and this entire movement began in her memory. Her laugh, her smile, her generous soul is in every piece of Let The Elephants Dance. This would not exist without Laura, and I would not be who I am today without Laura. I love you, and I miss you every day.After 10 years, I am incredibly grateful for all the beautiful humans that I have crossed paths with either on stage, backstage, in the audience, as a donor, through our Podcast "Moving Beyond Stigma", or dance program "Movement Heals". Every moment, every person has left a mark. Thank you to each and everyone of you, and thank you for choosing to spend another evening together.
 
See you on Saturday, February 21st 2026

GRETA YYZ FEBRUARY GUEST LIST 2026

Welcome to Toronto, a city where skyscrapers touch the sky and breathtaking lake views await! Indulge in the diverse food scene where poutine and sushi become the perfect pair. Take your bravery to new heights at the iconic CN Tower and soak up the vibrant entertainment in downtown.

Bienvenue à Toronto, où la devise non officielle de la ville est "Désolé, pas désolé", alors que les habitants jonglent avec la lutte quotidienne de se précipiter au travail tout en renversant leur café double-double de chez Tim Hortons sur eux-mêmes. Découvrez le phénomène magique de la capacité des Torontoniens à se plaindre à la fois de la chaleur écrasante et du froid glacial dans la même semaine, mettant en valeur leur remarquable talent pour les doléances liées aux conditions météorologiques. Et ne manquez pas le spectacle exaltant de regarder les habitants se livrer à une bataille féroce pour les sièges du tramway, où les coups de coude et les regards assassins font simplement partie du trajet quotidien.
