Japanese Bluegrass Original TV Show

[@fjfue01]

Music is the language which unites people. Who would have thought that after a fierce war between Japan and America, decades later Japanese musicians would be playing America's Bluegrass music with the verb, talent, and accent of any of our Appalachian bands. Bravo !!

[@Brendaleegeneau]

Wow, they are just as good if not better than what you hear coming out of Nashville. Love it!

[@davidkelley4111]

These guys are as good or better than any we have over here! I am blown away!

[@willleith8456]

Man!!!! that was one of the best versions of Uncle Penn that I ever heard, Bill would be mighty proud , thanks for sharing....

Love Molly and Tenbrooks at 20:00. How great to hear American bluegrass music played worldwide

[@AshtonCoolman]

The Japanese-Apalachia accent is somehow very suited to bluegrass. I LOVE THIS! I must hear more.

[@BruceThomson]

Wonderful! Thanks for posting it. It demonstrates, amazingly, the total arbitrariness of genetic and cultural identity. Japanese can be as American as any American, and presumably any American can be as Japanese as any Japanese, etc. =)

Instrumentally and vocally superb!!

[@teresarichardson7071]

I just can't stop smiling and singing along and tapping my feet! These guys are GREAT!

His name is Sasabe Masuo (family name is "Sasabe"). This band is a just one day session unit for TV show, like Muleskinner. Session leader is a fiddler, Kishimoto Ichiyo (family name is "Kishimoto").
