Daisuke Okuzumi 奥住大輔 sax
Studied under Matt Wilson in NY in 1996, and also learned a lot from late Roy Haynes. While exploring in improvisation since around 2000, she played in many improvisation units including 'BOREDOMS presents 7 x 13 BOA DRUM' and Otomo Yoshihide 's 'Collective Fukushima !'. She has been organizing improv-only jam session events since 2017. Being such a cat lover that calls herself a ‘nyanko drummer’, her drumming reflects late beloved cat's suppleness.
