MP3 Kenji Shinagawa - Perhaps, Drawing Again

Music that finds epic and beauty in everyday life.

9 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Instrumental Rock

Details:
Kenji's music is a marriage of his boundless musical choices, and is drawn through a culmination of his unique personal experiences. From the rampant hills of Osaka to the towering landscape of New York City, the songs are born out of the vast changes of surroundings, and through an everyday reflection of life and self.

Kenji's pursuit of music began as an early teen when he felt an otherworldly connection to his sister's electric guitar that sat unplayed in his home. Actually, maybe it began at a much earlier age when he grew up listening to his family members (his mother, both of his older sisters, and his grandmother) play Chopin pieces every day on the piano.

Perhaps, Drawing Again features 9 picturesque instrumental songs written and arranged by Brooklyn-based guitarist/composer, Kenji Shinagawa. This collection features songs that represent autobiographical tales (BlueoraNge, Small Doses of Happiness, First Flight of the Cherry Tree Bird), fictional scenes (Mississippi Slow Dance, Still Frame), and a day in the life revelation (Hero's Plectrum, A Song I Thought I Heard).
