Born Daigo Yamashita on 18 January 1989 in Singapore, he is a Japanese musician, singer-songwriter, and performer who fuses rockabilly, blues, and traditional Japanese musical sensibility into a style he calls Samurai Rock 'n' Roll. He began playing in Tokyo at the age of eighteen after first encountering rock and roll in junior high school, and released his debut CD Jeana for Young in 2011. He has since performed internationally across Japan, Europe, Asia, and the United States with his backing band, completing four studio albums.
