TOKYO GROOVE JYOSHI Bio:

TOKYO GROOVE JYOSHI is a female groove band formed in 2018 in Tokyo by three Japanese session musicians, Emi Kanazashi (keyboard,vo), Juna Serita (bass.vo) and Yuriko Seki (drums,cho).

Their producer got opportunity to live in NY for eight years in 1980s and 2010s, and he went to around 500 music live concerts. Especially in late 80s, he experienced creative music beyond genres, and he fell in love with groove music. As Duke Ellington said, “There are simply two kinds of music, good music and the other kind”, he strives to produce TOKYO GROOVE JYOSHI as a powerful groove band with music beyond the generations, genders, and genres. They mainly perform at various music festivals and solo live concerts. Most of the time, they get fully occupied. Since the band is formed, they have been collaborating with other musicians also.

They made music videos and the video “WHAT IS HIP?” became huge hit (over total 3000000hit) particularly outside of Japan. In February of 2020, they went to NY and performed at live music clubs such as THE BITTER END, SHRINE, Suger, GROOVE, cafe Wha?… Famous music producer Ray Angry invited them for those live performances, and they played almost every nights. The audience were so welcoming and warm. They’ve been playing cover songs mainly, and finally they have started making original songs from July 2020. Juna&Yuriko graduated from TOKYO GROOVE JYOSHI.
