Baraka was formed in Tokyo in 1997 with three members, Shin , Issei and Max. The band's blood is "edge rock" , including prog rock , jazz , funk , and blues, they create their own unique musical idiom in which an aggressive and thrilling presentation is combined with a freewheeling performance style made possible by their simple lineup which is trio. Their stage performance are full of the powerful soundand tight ensemble. Baraka has played over 300 gigs all over Japan as well as abroad like Britain, Canada, America, Australia and Europe, specially NXNE Music Fesival in Toronto, Prog'Sud Festival in Marseille and Madrid Art Music Festival in Madrid where they have met with the highest praise. The band produced 8 albums in its 11 years of existence and "BARAKA VII" (2007) and "Shade of Evolution"(2008) were released from Musea Records (France). In the summer of 2009, Baraka took part in the music festival CRESCENDO in France.

Hi Shin, Issei and Max.
It was an honor to meet you three.
It was great seeing you guys perform at the Crescendo Festival! Your music is amazing. 

Now I am listening to your new CD, over and over again, it is TOTALLY AMAZING!
I need to listen to it some more, to fully digest it, but it is an incredible CD!
I'm stunned.

I'll talk to you soon about our local festivals here in the USA, 

Your friend,

Gayle
