Formed in 2004 around professional members drummer Noriaki Kumagai and bassist Mitsuru Sutoh—both of whom have played in CASIOPEA and T-SQUARE—this band remains active well into the 2020s.
Needless to say, their band ensemble, driven by one of Japan’s premier rhythm sections with overwhelming technical prowess, is formidable.
At the same time, they’re known for weaving comical elements into their compositions and for performance styles that emphasize playful spontaneity in live settings.
You can enjoy them as top-tier fusion jazz backed by advanced technique, but we especially recommend experiencing their visually engaging live performances.
