Tokyo Groove Jyoshi came together under the guidance of producer Koichi Kaneko in 2018 and began playing shows across Japan, quickly establishing themselves as a phenomenal live act.
The band travelled to New York in 2020 and played at a plethora of famed jazz music clubs, such as Bitter Ed, Shrine, Sugar, Groove and Café Wha?, quickly gaining a reputation for their incredible sets.
They’ve gone on to tour all over Japan and play festivals in Taiwan and Singapore, as well as find a passionate audience in Australia. Tokyo Groove Jyoshi toured the country twice last year, in February and November, and are back for their third outing this March for what promises to be another must-attend concert.
