  • Bio

    ....You can purchase my new album, .."Clear Plasic Case"... Click on the album cover. ................ .. ..The songs are also available on ....iTunes...... .......... ...."Guitar driven songs with off-the-wall vox, fused with Japanese music, Soul, Techno and Jazz"..-- Lior Shamir, Managing Director, We Are Listening...... ..- Kazki Bio -.. ...."Kazki moved to Austin, Texas from Oguni, Yamagata, Japan. As a guitarist with unique and diverse sounds, it was difficult to find competent and passionate Japanese musicians as those found in America's music scene. Upon visiting Austin he experieced true, live, American Rock n' Roll and Blues. The city made him want to form his own band with American musicians... ....It was after he moved to Austin that he started writing his original songs as well as learning English so he could write lyrics in the language. In spite of searching, he could not find a singer, who could sing all of his songs in the blended styles of Rock, Soul, Jazz, and World music. He started writing original lyrics and started to sing his own music. It was then that he started playing bass, drums, and started composing whole songs... ....The album, 'Clear Plastic Case' is his first full-length album and is his second album. It was his first time to have freedom with producing the whole album (except the tracks 1 and 10 produced by Dean Dichoso) in a studio, where he played bass as well as guitar, which allowed him to express the details of the compositions and the "feel" of the songs for the first time.".. ..You're probably listening to one of my songs from my new album "Clear Plastic Case", which is available at ..CD Baby...

King, Jon Garcia, Bei Bei, Rodrigo y Gabriela, Daft Punk, Bob Dylan, Gary Graves, Jeff Buckley, Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield, Queen, Jaco Pastorius, The Beatles, Etta James, Ella Fitzgerald, Nirvana, Foo Fighters, Regina Spector, John Lennon, Brendon Hunt.. ..And all life forms and my spiritual growth!..
