Yuru jam @ Akasaka Jakaz

 

 

 

Hey guys!! I’m a bass guitar player Juna Serita !!

 

Today I had a rehearsal for Ayu Kang trio .

I brought 5 strings today ’cause I guess her songs need some low sounds .

We played several her original songs, and also cover songs arranged by her .

We ‘re gonna have a gig in Tokyo , and also have a tour in Hokkaido .

That must be so much fun !!!

 

At night I had  a jam session as a host member at Akasaka Jakaz .

I played not only the bass guitar , but also drums . I ‘m so happy that some people said to me I’m an amateur as a drummer  but still grooving !!lol

I’ll keep going ♪

And the owner of the venue bought my EP ” The Princess of Funk” .  Thanks !!

So you can listen to my songs if you come to Jakaz and ask him ; )

Next month actually I gotta skip the jam because my schedule is already packed ; (  There will be a bass guitar player instead of me. So you can come enjoy  ; )!

 

 

See ya!!
