Description

Due to a Massive Public Demand, Tokyo Groove Jyoshi (TGJ) the All Female Groove/Funk Band is back for their 2nd “Grooving Down Under” Tour after a Highly Successful “Tokyo Down Under” of April 2024, where both their shows at the Foundry were sold out! Four of their Seven shows in Perth, Melbourne and Sydney were sell outs then. TGJ was formed in 2018 in Tokyo by their producer Koichi Kaneko (Neko) consisting of Japanese session musicians. The band’s current line is Emi Kanazashi (keyboards/vocals), MiMi Kawakami (drums /vocals) and Rina Hoshino (bass/vocals). Neko had the opportunity to live in New York City for eight years in the 1980’s and 2010’s. He went to see around 500 live concerts and shows. In the late 1980’s, he experienced creative music beyond genres and fell in love with groove music. As Duke Ellington said “There are simply two kinds of music, good music and the other kind”. Neko has strived to produce TGJ as a powerful groove band with music beyond the generations, genders and genres.
