Japanese Irish Bands

Why do punks have spiky hair?

It's so that they can play the washboard with it of course!

That was Junior who are new to me, and this is the Cherry Coke$ who I've featured before.

Japan Part 7 - Asakusa Jinta

Part 7 is the last of this look at Japan, but I've saved the best until last.

This is Asakusa Jinta!

More!

This one doesn't have any accordion :( but I love it anyway :)

Spotlight on Japan - Part 4

Today we have a couple of tracks featuring the melodica.

This is Neco, who in this track seem to have updated some traditional Japanese music.

And this is Elektel playing Midnight Samba.

Spotlight on Japan - Part 3 Reggae

There are no accordions in this, but its such a fantastic song we can forgive that; and besides there is some nice skanking organ in it. This is "Bagdad Cafe The Trench Town", (yes that does seem to be their full name). This went down a storm on my Facebook when I posted it there a few weeks ago and I hope you love this too.

I think this is the same band, maybe from an earlier incarnation? But anyway, check out the great combo organ playing.

Spotlight on Japan - Part 2 Olefoggydick

Do they do folk-rock in Japan? Yes they do! This is Oldfoggydick.
