About Me

I'm a Japanese native, who simply loves to sing, play and listen to bossa nova and other Brazilian jazz/samba. In January of 2007, I picked up a guitar and started to learn to play and sing bossa nova. So far, I have not been able to put it down! I feel truly blessed to have found my true heart's passion. I hope to continue on this wonderful path and to learn more about the art of music from all the great musicians in the world with the hope and dreams that one day I, too, can become a real musician. Meanwhile, I'd love to share my love, network and make new friends here. I hope to make acquaintance with you soon. Best wishes. Yoko
