Akira Sakata impresses as a skilled saxophonist, a marine biologist and with his vocals from a far away time and place...
Since the late 60s, Sakata has been a constant figure in jazz and creative music scenes as an adventurous multi-instrumentalist, and member of Yamashita Yosuke Trio and many under his own lead. He played and recorded with Bill Laswell, Hijokaidan and is active with Jim O'Rourke.
