Unit Asia
The band comprises Japanese musicians Isao Miyoshi (guitar), Hiroyuki Noritake (drums), and Shigeki Ippon (bass), accompanied by Thai saxophone star Koh Mr. Saxman and the young Malaysian pianist Tay Cher Siang. These five outstanding musicians, with a busy concert schedule in Asia, perform a progressive jazz capable of transcending the boundaries of nations, cultures, and musical genres.
In 2008 they embarked on their first tour in Southeast Asia (Singapore, Philippines, Brunei, Malaysia and Thailand) and, two years later, recorded their first studio album, Smile for YouIn this album, they freely combine elements of rock and pop with those of jazz. They presented this work in the Middle East (India, Turkey, and Egypt) in 2011, and now in Spain, with two exclusive concerts in Madrid and Barcelona.
