A bold reinterpretation of Stevie Wonder's Latin-flavored anthem, elevated by mizqui's powerful voice and Akihiko Ogi's funky guitar. Yapani! brings fresh groove and color to this beloved tune, honoring the original while offering a uniquely band-driven take.
Yapani! is a jazz funk instrumental band with a tight horn section and powerful rhythm grooves. Active for nearly 20 years, they have performed at major festivals including FUJI ROCK. Their releases have charted in the iTunes Jazz Top 10 in Japan, Mexico, and Canada, while streams in the US and Brazil continue to grow. Fans of Ezra Collective and KOKOROKO will find their sound both familiar and fresh.
