http://www.hibikishamisen.com/

Hibiki Ichikawa is the only professional player of tsugaru shamisen; a traditional 3-stringed instrument played using a large pick called a bachi. In recognition of his great skill, he has been qualified to perform under a “Tier 1 Exceptional Talent Visa”, which is granted only to the most proficient artists. Hibiki frequently performs at festivals and formal occasions, including the Japan Matsuri in Trafalgar Square, and at the Japanese Emperor’s birthday celebrations at the Japanese Embassy, and has also participated in a theatre production at the Edinburgh Festival.

Akari Mochizuki – Professional Japanese folk & blues singer

Akari is from Iwakuni in Yamaguchi prefecture. When she was 3 years old, she started singing enka (a variety of traditional Japanese music which often takes the form of sentimental ballads) thanks to the influence of her father, who was a great fan of the genre. Akari studied drama in Cambridge and modern music in London, and started working as a professional singer in 2009. She has performed as an enka and minyo (Japanese folk music) singer for numerous occasions, including WOMAD 2010, Hyper Japan and Japan Matsuri.

Hidè Takemoto, guitar

Hidè started playing the electric guitar at 15. He switched to the classical guitar when he was 19 and was taught by Keigo Fujii, one of the greatest guitarists in Japan. At this time he also began studying composition at Osaka College of Music, Japan.

In 1999, Hidè took up a scholarship to study guitar at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama under Robert Brightmore, where he also studied composition (with Daniel Schroyens and Judith Bingham), counterpoint and orchestration.

After he graduated from the Guildhall School as a Bachelor of Music, with Postgraduate Diplomas in Music Performance and Composition, Hidè’s debut concert was at St. Martin-in-the-Fields in London, where he premièred his composition “Forest Gates”, for solo guitar, and his guitar concerto “Gion”, one of the highlights of his repertoire.

Inspired by his guru, the great virtuoso and composer Keigo Fujii, Hidè’s guitar technique can be traced back via José Luiz González, Andrés Segovia, Miguel Llobet to the great Francisco Tárrega. Hidè’s wide influences come from classical, rock, Indian and Japanese music, giving him a unique and original style of performance and composition.

-ANIMATION DANCE PERFORMER-蛮-bang-

He is a Japanese Solo Dance Performer / Artist of a unique dance form called Animation Dance.

In 2002 he performed as the lead vocal in a Gothic music band providing powerful performances as the front man.

Gradually, he moved to solo performance, involving Animation dance. He was attracted by its free style, creativity, and flexibility, and because he could make use of my gymnastic skill and singing experience. His style varies from catchy numbers to a more dramatic style.

He has his own crew, called Bang Family and we provide big performances using the original method of Space Screen Art which does not involve any lighting of the venue. (But does make use of moving image effects created by the crew.)

In Japan, I have been widely acclaimed for my original Gothic style dance, which has been recognised as powerfully expressive and creative, and makes audiences feel at one with the performance as in live rock concerts.

Formal, casual, celebrity party, fashion show, Corporate party, nightclub, all of the stage.

He can be sure to entertain.
