Yoshida Brothers

The Yoshida Brothers, Ryoichiro and Kenichi Yoshida, are Japanese musicians known for their masterful blending of the traditional sounds of the tsugaru-jamisen, a three-stringed instrument resembling a banjo, with modern genres to create a unique and captivating sonic experience. They are from Noboribetsu, Hokkaido, and were both trained from an early age in the rigorous tsugaru-jamisen style, which is distinguished by its rapid and energetic playing technique.

Since their debut in 1999, the Yoshida Brothers have gained international acclaim, contributing significantly to the popularization of their traditional instrument and earning a devoted following both in Japan and abroad. Their vibrant and innovative music, which often incorporates elements of folk, pop, rock, and electronica, has been featured on soundtracks and in commercials, broadening their reach to a diverse audience. Albums such as "Prism", "Horizon", and "THE YOSHIDA BROTHERS 〜20th. Anniversary from Debut〜" showcase their versatility and the breadth of their talents, as they continue to push the boundaries of their craft while honoring the cultural heritage intrinsic to their art.
