Though born and raised in Tokyo, Japan, Toshi Nakayama and Chinatsu Uehara met each other in the acting studio in New York City. Their crazy Australian Chinese classmate told them to start as a duo. They have been alive and kicking as Tokyo Penguin since then. They made their debut at CBGB's DownStairs Lounge in March 2005 and then won the Best of Open Mic Award in Fresh Fruit Festival 2005. They have got high praises both from Eastern and Western audience.
The main performance venue for TP in the past:
CBGB Gallery,
Knitting Factory,
Collective Unconscious,
Bowery Poetry Club.
