about

u.now was music project I was involved in with Kennard Xu and Tomoe Okuni between 2011 and 2014. It was a musical outlet for musical ALTs that happened to be in Kagoshima with us. We toured the prefecture to perform at various musical events and festivals and our schtick was playing acoustic covers of pop classics and favourites.
The roaster of performers changed every year, but towards the end of our ALT careers we had formed a solid group, a musical family.

It was with this in mind that in 2014, we decided to head into the "studio" (A mixer board and cafe owned by a friend), and record some of our favourites to remember the whole thing by. The result is digitally contained and freely available here for others that shared ties with us and the group and/or are curious.
