很难简短形容小河（著名乐队《美好药店》的主唱兼吉他手）独自在舞台上实现的奇迹。一个真正的“独奏乐团”，他的独奏基于道家式返朴归真的直觉并由此升华出混合中国四面八方的民谣唱腔，但又从不拘泥于传统。他的吉他不时犹如古琴又与电子气氛相得益彰，把音乐表现得淋漓尽致，前卫脱俗！他与各类先锋艺术家合作，其中不乏VJ, 作家，舞者，演员，前卫音乐家，电影工作者和画家。小河今年在欧洲巡演35场，持续长达两个月之久（09年3月与4月）。
Xiao He was born in 1975 in Handan, Hebei Province, China. In addition to singing and playing guitar for Glamorous Pharmacy, a Dada-esque performance art-rock troupe, Xiao He also performs by himself.. He plays free solo performances,, reaching deep into surreal chinese folk traditions, collaborating with all of kind of artists: Vj’s, writers, dancers, actors, avant-garde musicians, movie directors and painters. He has performed this year in Europe almost two months, more than 35 shows ( March & April 2009 ).
