AIJF Presents Japan Jazz Nights - BIGYUKI
About this event
Japan Jazz Nights celebrates 50 Years of Australia–Japan Friendship. With thanks to the Japan Foundation, AIJF Presents is proud to bring Japan Jazz Nights to Adelaide, featuring BIGYUKI.
Born in Japan, BIGYUKI is a New York-based keyboardist, synthesiser virtuoso, and composer who has become one of the most influential forces in the modern jazz and hip-hop scenes. Originally classically trained in Japan and a graduate of Berklee College of Music, he has developed a unique sound that seamlessly blends jazz harmony, soulful melodies, and heavy hip-hop beats with cutting-edge synthesis.
His groundbreaking "one-man band" style—simultaneously commanding massive synth basslines and intricate textures— has made him a primary collaborator for musical icons. He has toured and recorded with artists such as Robert Glasper, Kamasi Washington, Lauryn Hill, and Meshell Ndegeocello. Notably, his distinctive touch can be heard on A Tribe Called Quest's final album and Snarky Puppy's Grammy-winning projects.
Joining BIGYUKI on stage are Randy Runyon on guitar and Jharis Yokley on drums.
Opening band: South Australia's own Alexander Flood, performing with Cooper Peoples on sax and flute, David Goodwin on keyboards and Jack Strempel on keybass.
