Acoustic Guitarist since 1997. Living in the States, with a Japanese Soul. Currently a free lance musician in Boston, focusing on solo acoustic instrumentals. Appears regularly at numerous local open mics (Cantab, Passim, Kings Lounge).
"If Western melodies were plants, Shohei uses his acoustic guitar to arrange them with the minimalism of a Zen garden" ... Mr. Lucien Carmichael from Cafe Luna, Cambridge
"Shohei Toyoda is an instrumental steel-string acoustic guitarist. I’ve heard him play short sets nearly every week for the last year at the open mic I run at the Cantab Lounge in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and am impressed by his facility and by the vitality, humor and depth of his playing. It’s not always easy to grab the attention of the crowd in a bar environment, but Shohei has the touch... his sets invariably win strong applause. ~ Geoff Bartley (August 2009)"
