About Me
I was born in Tokyo,Japan and came to New York in 1975. I am the last pianist for the Lionel Hampton Orchestra, from 1991 till 2002, I toured all over U.S. and Europe with Hamp. Also I have toured with Duke Ellington Orchestra, Illinois Jaquet Orchestra, Cab Calloway Orchestra and George Gee Swing Orchestra.
