Sounds Like
The Beatles in the 70's and 80's if they didn't break up
J.S. Bach in the 21st century if he didn't die so early as 1750

HEDAY
Currently Heday is working with a Japanese legendary artist-producer Doctor Osamu Kitajima(www.eastquest.com) to change the world!! Heday recorded the Beatles' Nowhere Man and Here Comes The Sun with Jim Keltner, who was a drummer for John Lennon, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr in their solo careers.
He has also recorded with many top musicians in LA such as Matt Laug(Alanis Morrisette), Makoto Izumitani(Gwen Stefani) and so on. Heday was recently invited to play a session alongside Ringo Starr as well as Klaus Voormann, Jim Keltner and Van Dyke Parks. Additionally, Heday is currently working on string arrangement for the prolific Jerry Lee Lewis.
Heday wrote songs with Mitsuru Kuramoto, one of top TV writers who made many hit TV shows with Hitoshi Matsumoto (Down Town).
In July 2008, Heday made his TV debut in Japan. He was introduced and interviewed as an upcoming artist on Tokyo Breakthru.
"I write and arrange songs using techniques and concepts of classical music. I'm trying to make music that The Beatles would be making if they did not break up. Someone led the music industry in a wrong direction, so we have to bring the real music back to the scene. Japanese people can make good electric devices, cars and so on with thier own creative ideas, so why not music? I guess we can. haha. We hope someday you will join us..." Heday
As A Guitarist
Heday has eceived BA in classical guitar from UCLA. He studied with Scott Tennant of Los Angeles Guitar Quartet, Noboru Muraji (a father and teacher of a famous guitarist Kaori Muraji), Petter Yates and Eishun Fukui Please send a message for guitar lessons.
As A String Arranger
Heday's arrangements are done according to the classical music theory, and yet have nice rock feel. His clients say that his arrangements reminded them of George Martin's. He has his own great sting players ready for sessions. If you need string arrangements for your material, please feel free to contact.

Hey Heday, I'm doing very good, but very busy. I've been working around the house for my dad since his recovering from Intracranial hemorrhage last February, but he's getting better now.
I heard one of your new songs and I really like it! I had not heard a lot of classic rock for a long time. So I could not wait to hear the rest of your new songs. ^_^
