Artist Profile

• Hideki Nakakita

  I was blessed to have the opportunity to listen to many classical music when I was child, and although I took piano lesson by my father, I abandoned it when I was in elementary school, and from the age of 13, I leanded the guitar by myself through the instruction book of Madonna Ohara Seiko of the guitar world. Two years later, I got an acoustic guitar and was exposed to a lot of pop music, and I also played trombone for seven years. At the same time, I relearned the piano and I participated in various performances. While working as a pharmacist, at the beginning of the 21st century, I met Hitoshi Shimizu of the super band Off Course, formed "Kinki Uncles" together, which was trained by dozens of performances and to the present day. For more than 50 years, I has consistently touched the acoustic guitar and has released two vintage guitar albums.I was warmly welcomed by acoustic guitar fans and became acquainted with even more musicians, which led to the production of this album that used only pre-war instruments. This time, I feel that I was able to complete a more convincing performance with super professionals.
