Originally making its Music on Main debut back in March 2020, but canceled half-way through due to COVID-19, Double Happiness: Detour This Way is back!

Double Happiness traces migration paths of two families from Southern China through Hong Kong to finally settle in the Pacific Northwest. Featuring 13 original songs by co-leading artists Nancy Tam and Only A Visitor’s Robyn Jacob, Double Happiness weaves through history with an art-pop aesthetic. This multimedia performance uses live music, sound design, and video vignettes retell personal and communal stories of migration from the Chinese diaspora in a contemporary context. We are facing forward, looking back.
