Lyric

I went to Chicago in pursuit of music.

My exposure to the blues, the encounters with all kinds of people, and the time I spent in the city of Chicago became the foundation of my own music.

Eventually, my role in music shifted from performing on stage to supporting others' music.
For 20 years, I collaborated with various artists on their projects and spent my time supporting their music.
Throughout that time, music was always there for me.

In 2020, I'm starting my own music all over again.

On my first visit to Paris, I took my guitar out onto the streets.
In a city where I didn't speak the language, I met people through music alone.

Then came Seoul.
The hustle and bustle of the city, the energy of the people, and the music flowing through it all.
The feelings I experienced in these different places gradually accumulated within me.

Eventually, I awoke to the "poetry" that lay within me.
I began to feel the urge to convey something in my own words.

And after returning to Japan, I began singing along the banks of the Sumida River in Tokyo.

Chicago, Paris, Seoul, Tokyo.

The people I met there, and the time that passed.
Before I knew it, each and every one of those experiences had become my current sound and my poetry.

2026.
My first single, "Paris Wind", and my first mini-album, "RIVERSIDE STEP".

The story of my music, beginning to walk after a long time.
Change the days of my life into music.
