1.tomo

Hi, I’m tomo.  Nice to meet you! Born in Yokohama and raised in the US, I write English lyrics, compose and  perform in my Acoustic Duo in the wider Tokyo Metro area, as well as sing, play and record flute and sax as supporting musician for other pop/rock/jazz artists.

I specialize in singing training in both English and Japanese languages.

If you are interested in Japanese music and songs, let me help you with the cultural background of the music and how to express the songs in Japanese using English analogy and easy phonetics.  I look forward to meeting you soon!

I was born in Ome City, Tokyo, and started playing the piano at the age of six. While studying at Kunitachi College of Music in 2006, I joined the creator group TEAM WHIM, working on music production for commercials and events.

I work as a freelance composer and arranger. I have created music and played piano for artists such as Shuta Sueyoshi (AAA), ATSUSHI (EXILE), Takuma Terashima, and Mai Fuchigami. I also produce music for company promotional videos and soundtracks for Panasonic, Sony, Canon, and more. In addition, I am active as a conductor.

My hobbies are cars, motorcycles, fishing, and flying drones.
