Hiroshima
Smooth Jazz Magazine|September - October 2019
Award winning hometown band, Hiroshima is a band well known universally.
Hiroshima

I believe we all look forward to listening to June Kuramoto playing the Koto, Dan Yamamoto playing the flute, and music greats drummer Danny Yamamoto, keyboard Kimo Cornwell, bassist Dean Cortez and drummer Land Richards. Their sound is unique, smooth and forever everlasting. If you are a jazz connoisseur, Hiroshima is on your playlist. Their music resonates RB, Pop and Jazz. Performing many of their old and new songs, ending their evening with their hit single “One Wish,” a classic. Be on the lookout of a new CD coming in a few months.

The Legendary and Phenomenal Commodores were explosive on stage with all their hit singles, “I Feel Sanctified,” “Lady,” “Easy Like Sunday Morning,” “Night Shift” and “Still.” Their classic hit “Brick House,” you know, “36 24 36, oh what a winning hand” The Bowl had an old house party only it was outdoors.
