Sydney LauClass of: 2027
Major: Civil Engineering Hometown: Brooklyn, NY Member Since: September 2023 Bio: Sydney comes from a very generic yet unimpressive classical piano background, and even though piano is "percussion" she'd never so much as imagined touching a drum in her life before Yamatai. What could a skinny little girl do with such big drums? But then, Sydney saw Yamatai perform at Clubfest. Her sister was about to leave when she saw Yamatai begin setting up on stage, and her "OMG NEVERMIND I'M STAYING" made Sydney very curious about what the big deal with Yamatai was. She was absolutely blown away by the energy of the performance, so after some encouragement from her sister, Sydney decided "Eh, why not" and went to tryouts for fun. Now, Yamatai, taiko, and the Yamafam have become a core part of Sydney's life and personality, to which she is eternally grateful for. She is excited to make many more happy memories with Yamatai!
