Otoe has been on the Japanese scene for a while now. She has been touring Japan off and on for the last couple of years, and this is her first CD as a solo artist. Reaction is always great and people are really surprised at the amount of funk and sound coming from Otoe's sax. She has a very pure personality which shows in her playing and performance. Places are really starting to fill up, with many venues selling out. Her drummer/producer is Scott Latham, who has lived in Japan for 25 years. Please check out this CD- you won't be disappointed.
