Early Life

Tomokazy was often requested by elementary school music teachers "Please sing, Tomokazy". He was a child with a blue baseball cap who didn't have TV games, comics, etc. and He wasn't good anything which is like sports, study, love, art, play etc except music in elementary school. And then he felt himself a looser. He was disappointed himself. So Tomokazy dicided and said himself what he would be Number 1 of something in his future.

Tomokazy bought a cheep electric guitar and started singing and playing the electric guitar since 13, 14 years old. He learned guitar by himself. At high school age, he often sang and played his original songs with his band in school and some small live halls. He also recorded and made some his demo songs. He played the electric guitar 8 hours everyday.

Tomokazy literary wasn`t gonna go to high school. He thought he didn`t need to study no more. But he couldn`t tell his parents. He always felt he wasted of his time. Because he had dicided completely that he would be a pro singer and guitarist and wanted debut as soon as possible. So he just wanted and needed playing music.

Tomokazy was often said "You're creepy" by all class mates everyday in high school and also they laughed at him. He had felt sadness and cried in his heart. So he had played his electric guitar loudly. Then he felt himself. He always grows up late. After He graduated high school, He still had been in the darkness and sadness which were darker and worse. He really wanted to die and he never was able to tell it to anyone. He never went outside as well. His life never had changed. He wanted to be free. He couldn't take its sadness and got over the line. He lost all emotions and memories. and his clock stopped up. But he tried to play the E.Guitar and make demos so hard every all night and day except meal and nap for several years.

Tomokazy used to listen to Blues, Rhythm and Blues and other African american music and read some books which are story of Blues and about Blues musicians since he was a teenager. Tomokazy might had looked for the same sadness of himself. And he wanted to go to Memphis when he was around 20 years old as well.

After its several years, at the age of early 20, his mind changed from "I wanna die" to "I die now, what do I want to do now?". He asked myself every second. Tomokazy went outside and started to play Blues with his Fender stratocaster at bars, small halls, jam sessions etc anywhere every night, he almost hadn't slept at around this age. Sometimes he played Blues with American and audience were foreigners who were American, British, Irish, New zealand people, etc. Tomokazy was said by an american woman "nice", by a british young man "You play the guitar great", etc.

By Now

After Tomokazy completely ended up to play music at pub, amusement park, restaurant, etc, session work too as an apprenticeship of musician,

Tomokazy really wanted to play "his own music" and started to sing and play, sometimes with his backup musicians, sometimes as solo, many times at small live hall when he was 35 or 36. But he thought it was not bad, but also not good. The music was Blues but Japanese language. It didn`t work. So he gave it up.

 After that, Tomokazy was really bad illness. His body was thiner. His both legs were shaking, couldn`t had walked. Heartbeat was strange. He thought he could die. He decided "I will make my new music before I die". So he threw away his everything and all things which were ID card, drivers license, under wears, PC, his all past, etc. He lost everything and had nothing. Tomokazy sold his soul to the devil or he`s got a feeling that he`s got his music from music god by exchanging at this time. He would give his everything to music god. 

 And March 3, 2018. Tomokazy dicided "I will always go with this my music and the electric guitar".

 Tomokazy Wayne wants to win to historic persons. Like Johann Sebastian Bach, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Ludwig Van Beethoven, Thomas Alva Edison, Pablo Ruiz Picasso, Leonardo Da Vinci, Louis Armstrong Jr., Katsushika Hokusai, Oda Nobunaga, Matsuo Basho, etc. And also Tomokazy Wayne need to win to God.

 Tomokazy Wayne goes with his own "3 Bar Music".

Songs and Recordings

Talk about your 6th album. How did you record the album ?

-Tomokazy-

"Apple Pie" and "Nervous" were recorded by putting A Fender Supersonic 60watt and just one BLUE`s Bluebird condenser microphone beside me in the studio and I sang and played the Fender Japan stratocaster. The guitar playing was completely improvisation. These are just one data each, no edit.
