Tokyo's Coolest Sound

Here's a 3rd album by NeoBallad, unit of singer Wakasa Sachi and drummer/producer Kamiryō Wataru (ex-P-Model, Grass Valley), who together perform Japanese traditional songs (minyō) with a techno twist.

A one-man event will be held at Koenji High on August 16, with guest musicians on Tsugaru-jamisen and violin.
