FREE SHOW in Glendale, Sept 9th w/ tunnelmental experimental assembly

CALLING ALL 818ers – I’m finally playing a show in our hood! ever since I moved from Japan,

818 has been my homebase for 10 years, and there’s no doubt that it holds a special place in my heart,

but there hasn’t been an opportunity to do a show in the lovely SFV (and Calabasas does not count!)

until NOW – good people at ISGOODMUSIC.COM has assembled a FREE SHOW at LaBrie’s Lounge

with a great electronica band from UK called Tunnelmental Experimental Assembly

and 818 Haters! it’s your time to change your tainted perception of this beautiful Valley!

it’s not that far, there’s that Americana thing right by the venue, and Porto’s! one of the best bakeries in LA!

also, if you missed the CD release back in July cos it was on goddamn WED night,

come to this one to pick up your copy of the album and check out the live manifestation of these tracks

looking forward to seeing you all,

SK 1st album is available for download

thanx to those who made it out to MidTones Album Release Edition last night @ Grand Star. it was one of the greatest nights we’ve had at MidTones and of my lifetime.

for those who missed it or were unable to attend, the album is available for digital download at shinkawasaki.bandcamp.com or from the “music download” link at the top-right corner of the top page. or just click on any of the links here on this post, like the text you are reading right now – yes, this one, all of these. lol

check back here for I will slowly release outtakes and unreleased tracks that didn’t really fit the album but are equally good, and the ones that I performed live at the party and the past shows! hopefully I’ll do videos for some of these tracks (any filmmakers out there who want to take a shot at making videos/collaborating hollar at me!)

here are some quotes from the people who liked the album;

from ReviewPosse.com

“Completely original, with catchy hooks, crunchy guitar, retro keys, cool vocals and creative arrangements,  all while being  “way out there” gotta love it.”  Sylus Brown

“Complex pop/rock while being fun, an excellent original composition and experience, I want to see Shin” -Rob Ritter

“Instantly enjoyable fusion of different styles of pop and rock” – Stuart Messenger

from Sluggo @ KROQ

“I like it!  Great stuff!  The manic energy is infectious, I love the instrumentation and the sci fi bite.  I left it cranked the whole time – pretty rare for a first listen!”

from Marc Doten @ Double Naught Spy Car

“Lovin your CD, it’s sick groovin and honest all at once.”
