TGIF! How about spending this Friday night traveling a bit far from the center of the big city to enjoy this funky R&B/Soul band led by a legendary Japanese musician named Toshio Akiyama!!
Toshio Akiyama, 65, who opened for Buddy Guy and Junior Wells decades ago, is a true hard-core R&B/Soul veteran. His band includes well-experienced great musicians (almost the same as those playing in the above YouTube video from 2016). If you feel like dancing (I bet you will!), please do so! The venue has enough space for dancing. It's a very friendly place with a pretty good food menu.
Come see us in Hachioji!!
A very friendly live music bar owned by a friendly guitarist guy. It's a perfect place for you to drop by after work, have a drink or two, enjoy some American cafe food, and of course enjoy great live music. The music is usually not so loud you can still converse with your friend even when the music is going on. There are a soul jam (every first Monday), a blues jam (every second Monday), and a jazz jam (every third Monday) every month, as well as great performances by pro, semi-pro and local musicians from time to time. It is also a good place for a private party.
