*New CD VOICE coming soon! CD release show at KITANO on Wed. June 16
Taeko Fukao's debut CD, One Love (2007 Flat Nine Records), is available at CDBaby.com.
Warm and inviting, Taeko Fukao entices her audience in a most organic way. With her naturally appealing voice, unique musical ideas and fluid delivery, Taeko's star is on the rise. Born and raised on the outskirts of Kyoto, Japan, she was inspired early on by the traditional Japanese music her father and grandfather played, and has been singing as long as she could remember. Her interest in jazz was piqued while still in Japan; in 1998 she moved to New York City to dig deeper and follow her dream.
Taeko Fukao regularly performs in New York City between tour dates at Minton's Playhouse, Kitano, Zinc Bar and St. Nick's Pub, as well as featured dates at The Blue Note and Sweet Rhythm. She has headlined at Newburgh Jazz Festival, The Pork Pie Hat Jazz Concert Series (CT) which led to her being asked to headline at the long-running Hartford Jazz Society's Concert Series. A finalist in the 2008 NYC Jazz Mobile Competition, she tours Japan twice yearly to perform for her broadening fan base there. For more information, visit http://www.songbirdtaeko.com.
