Takehiko Fukuda (keyboard) will leave Djamra

The keyboardist Takehiko FUKUDA who has lived under the same roof for about a decade will leave Djamra and suspend his activity as a musician just after this tour.

Not as a keyboardist but also as a designer for our CD sleeves or concert bills, he has played an important role in our combo. And let me enphasize he is such a receptive guy to my selfishness. 

Now indulging in reminiscence that I brought our album for Takehiko (living nearby actually) who had ordered it, without any mobile map nor nabigation system ... it was a shame for me he and his wife had found me wandering as a lost cat.

He had an audition for the part of a keyboardist / pianist just after that, and became a member of Djamra very soon. 

He and I have innumerable memories for this decade. So sad to bid "temporary" farewell to him but I'm sure the time to play complicated music with him would come sooner or later.

Many thanks to Takehiko for your incredible works.
