Shimokitazawa 440 is one of my favorite venues in Japan, wonderful sound operated by engineer Michiru Tawa. Here I played memorable concerts, the first one I remember was a trio with Yuji Katsui and Seiichi Yamamoto. I still consider releasing the recording of that performance someday. So great!

Goto Mariko is a superb singer, unpredictable...so much fun to play with!!!

Here's a video of U-Zhaan, tablas virtuoso, playing in this video with the amazing Rei Harakami. (Rei died 2 years ago. I cannot believe this still)

Yuji Katsui and I have been playing together every couple of years since we first met playing with Juana Molina in Tokyo around 2022. We played together in Japan, USA and Argentina.

I'm so glad to be back in Japan, playing in this wonderful venues with such great musicians.
