Residing in Los Angeles and travelling the world from Japan, GOH (Goh Kurosawa) is a musician armed with Honey Beast (his guitar), Lucky8 (his amp), fresh original songs, electrifying soundscapes, and stunning arrangements of familiar global melodies.
Scott Yanow (journalist for AllMusic & LA Jazz Scene) expresses: "Goh Kurosawa's music is beyond any simple classification. The guitarist improvises melodically, is open to the influences of pop, rock, flamenco, classical, Latin and Japanese music, and has his own musical identity. Equally skilled on electric and acoustic guitars, he has mastered tapping and sometimes uses electrical devices to create a wide range of sounds yet is not shy to embrace a pretty melody; personable and eager to talk about his music and guitar tunings between songs, Goh put on a warm and entertaining show. His set included Bob Marley's No Women No Cry, My Family My Friends (original), a Japanese folk song, Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah (which he sang) and parts of a suite he recently composed."
GOH's performance at JUXT will be his first outside of Los Angeles since the start of the pandemic. Coincidentally, he will be playing at the Taphouse and the name of his tour is the Lovetap Tour. The focus of his first out-of-state performance is "finding home." GOH says, "A dear old friend of mine, Roger Mills (former co-owner of the Wild Buffalo in Bellingham), is flying me out to Washington state for his birthday week. Bellingham, I am coming back to you, my 'home' in the Pacific Northwest!!!"
