• Shimako Sarumaru

  Shimako Sarumaru is a Japanese jazz singer, pianist, composer and crystal bowl performance and healing artist. She learned to play the piano at a young age because of her interest in music. After graduating from high school she travelled to the United States and study at the Brooklyn Queens Conservatory of Music in New York City majoring in jazz vocals. While studying in NY she began her professional career as a singer, sitting in with musicians at local jazz bars. She participated in many musical events including her appearance at the Apollo Theatre in Harlem which is known to be a gateway for professionals. In 2005, she entered the Kobe Jazz Vocal Queen Contest and won the NHK Award and started to vigorously perform live in jazz bars. She discovered Brian L. Weiss' book of self-realization therapy and became interested in her spiritual side and wrote compositions that reflected this nature. She travelled to Bali wanting to integrate spiritual aspects of her being into her music and began using the crystal bowls in her performance, fusing music and spirituality. She has since developed sound healing classes and private sessions using the crystal bowls and yoga. She also creates original music melding melody and lyrics utilizing the crystal bowls and channeling a higher spiritual consciousness. In January 2018 she released "Breath of Air" with music producer Masami Kobayashi. Arrangements by Yukihiro Wakasugi. All music and lyrics by Shimako (Except #5).
