About

Born in Japan, raised in Dublin, Ohio (USA). Shohei always knew he had a special connection with music through out his life…. having piano lessons from his mother, joining concert band in middle school, or always holding on to his Sony Walkman. He finally found the sound he was looking for when he strummed a simple E minor chord on his father’s guitar. Ever since, he would try to play whatever song that caught his attention…. songs from the hit-charts, TV, movies, or from his parents CDs, but he was especially attracted to the authentic “guitar music” with some folk and roots influences. He got his first steel stringed guitar, a Martin D-15, from his father on his 13th birthday. He was astonished by the sound because it sounded just like his favorite recordings he would listen to everyday. After practicing a song or two, he would perform those any time he had the chance…. whether it was just hanging out with friends, school talent show, or little house concerts.

He moved to Bosto
