Yutaro Ogida, Jun Ishida and Derron, June 28th at Water Rats

This is a rare opportunity to see Japanese singer-songwriter Yutaro Ogida across from Tokyo. Yutaro spent his early childhood in New York and attended high school in London where he started playing guitar. After going back to Japan in the 1990’s, he joined Wouassi Vincent’s Afrorock band, The Roots Band. This is a great opportunity to catch his diverse and catchy music.

We are lucky to have Singer/Songwriter Jun Ishida in support. Based on country music and J-pop, Jun delivers refreshing music that is typical of Hokkaido with lyrics that are easy to relate to. As someone who grew up in a child welfare facility, her music activities are based on the theme of "never giving up on your dreams or the things you love." She has 13,000 followers on TikTok and broadcasts her own music variety show [ROOMLIVE] on YouTube every third and fourth Sunday of the month from 8pm. She is the personality of [JUN's Swingingdoor] on FM Otaru every third Thursday of the month from 11pm. She posts covers every day on TikTok and YouTube and is a million-liver on the distribution app uplive.

Talented guitarist and vocalist plus Japanese event regular, Derron will be finalising our lineup.

Join us on June 28th at The Water Rats for a night filled with incredible music and a great atmosphere. Grab your tickets now and get ready for a night to remember!
