Born on January 12, 1977 in Himeji, Japan.
Jun Tanaka is a singer-songwriter who loves animals in cat family.
He was brought up in Himeji, and spent his early 20's near Matsumushi Street in Nishinari, Osaka.
He is greatly influenced by British and American rock and pops of the 60s and 70s, and post-Gilberto Brazilian music, but basically he loves all kinds of music.
He is also a great lover of combat sports, manga comics of Showa period and Japanese comedy.
Gentouki means magic lantern in Japanese, and is inspired by the manga comic "Tomei Tsushin" written by Oji Suzuki whose works were published in various magazines such as Garo in the 70s.
Jun Tanaka started his music career in 199? (he doesn't remember) as a leader of a band, and Gentouki released their first mini album "Omae no Ashiato (Your Footprints)" from a indie label in 2000.
They released a single and an album before issuing their debut single "Nibiiro no Kisetsu (Gray Season)" from a major label in 2003. Since then, they have released 6 singles, 2 albums and 1 mini album.
From 2007, Jun Tanaka has started his career as a solo artist.
