Tommy Dawn profile
Japanese singer-songwriter, slide guitarist, and lap steel guitarist.
She started playing guitar in junior high school and discovered slide guitar at the age of 18. She began singing seriously soon afterward, and at 26, she discovered the lap steel guitar.
By exploring and switching between a variety of open tunings, she creates her own music and has developed a distinctive style of performing as a singer-songwriter on lap steel guitar—an uncommon approach even on the international stage.
In her live performances, she makes full use of a looping machine (Boss RC-600), spontaneously layering guitar, vocals, and percussion to create a powerful and original sound that goes far beyond what one might expect from a solo singer-songwriter.
Her musical range spans everything from blues and rock ’n’ roll to pop songs carried by deeply emotional melodies.
