English Village Band

Neil: I think Neil has a really fluid/mellow keyboard style. I liked his original song from the last concert a lot-there was a very funky keyboard break! If he’s feeling nervous before playing I can appreciate it completely although I’ve not strongly noticed this, he always seems really absorbed in the music.

Mina: Is very straight forward and energetic I think! She has a very strong singing style, I remember her really belting out some Guns’n’Roses (“Welcome To The Jungle’ I think!) at karaoke one time.

Misato: Seems quieter and very self contained/calm but I know she really loves music (like me!) and has done classical training with her music degree.

Shuhei: Is very laid back/friendly and has a laid back/mellow bass style too I think. I also want his top hat which he has worn for some concerts-I love top hats but left mine in England!

Hiro:  Is laid back/friendly too  and has a great guitar style-‘Stairway to Heaven’ and the rocky numbers sounded really good in the rehearsal I went to. I was very interested in (but largely failed to understand!) the guitar effects pedal he was using at the rehearsal.
