JAZZBILLY has announced the release of a digital single of a 13-horn BIG BAND rockabilly featuring guest vocalist and guitarist Tetsuro Oda, who is celebrating his 45th anniversary since his debut under the slogan 'Return to the roots of Rock-a-swing!!', as well as an analog version of the song remixed by Dub Master X, and a concept CD featuring Michael Tomioka as DJ!In 2024, the key members of JAZZBILLY will gather together after a long time since 2003. This summer, the journey back to the roots of Rock-a-swing will finally begin. 'Tokyo Street Rocker' is a song that Tetsuro Oda wrote in 1984 for the rockabilly band 'BLACK CATS', the first artist he produced, at the request of rockabilly brand 'Cream Soda' CEO Masayuki Yamazaki. This year, Tetsuro Oda celebrates his double anniversary of his 45th debut anniversary and his 40th anniversary of his first production. In honor of Tetsuro Oda, JAZZBILLY invited him as guest vocalist and guitarist. In order to rearrange the song in a big band arrangement, which is the essence of JAZZBILLY, the first horn section leader Yasushi Haketa returns after 22 years as the horn arranger and section general director. This is a masterpiece with a 13-horn ensemble that exquisitely intertwines with Tetsuro Oda's guitar. A dub mix version of 'Tokyo Street Rocker/JAZZBILLY feat. Tetsuro Oda' mixed by 'Dub Master X', a member of DUBFORCE, a LIVE dub engineer for MUTE BEAT, and a legend who continues to lead the dub scene in Japan. A limited edition vinyl record under the name 'Tokyo Street Rocker/JAZZBILLY featuring Tetsuro Oda x Dub Master X' is released as a super rare item
