SOIL & “PIMP” SESSIONS

SOIL & “PIMP” SESSIONS is an energetic, genre-defying jazz band from Tokyo, Japan, known for their explosive live performances and a unique style they call “death jazz.” Formed in the early 2000s, the group quickly gained attention for blending traditional jazz instrumentation with the raw energy and performance style of punk and rock, creating a sound that’s both chaotic and irresistibly groove-heavy. Their lineup features a mix of virtuoso musicians, including trumpet, saxophone, piano, bass, and drums, led by their charismatic “agitator,” Shacho, who acts as a hype man rather than playing an instrument.

Over the years, SOIL & “PIMP” SESSIONS has released a steady stream of innovative albums and soundtracks, and their music has crossed over into anime, film, and TV, earning them a global following. They're known not just for their music but also for pushing the boundaries of what jazz can be, making it louder, faster, and more intense. Whether collaborating with vocalists or performing as an instrumental powerhouse, the band continues to evolve while staying true to their fiery jazz roots.
