Vlad Jocic:
Vlad picked up the guitar at the age of 10 and has been actively involved in music ever since. As a performer, he has traveled the world from Norway, the UK, Ireland, the UAE, all the way to Australia and New Zealand. He has performed at some of the most eminent venues and festivals around the world, including the Royal Festival Hall, Royal Albert Hall, Wigmore Hall, Shepherd’s Bush Empire, Glastonbury, Reading, Fringe festivals (all in the UK), Enmore Theatre (Sydney, Australia), Forum (Melbourne, Australia), Spiegel Tent (Auckland, New Zealand), and Womad Festivals from Abu Dhabi (UAE) to Adelaide (Australia) and Las Palmas (Spain). Vlad has also been featured on more than 50 music releases in multiple roles, as a performer, writer, and producer. Some of those releases include Buddha Bar, Nirvana Lounge, Ministry of Sound Cream Anthems, and Queens Club Paris. Vlad has been living in Japan since 2009 and is currently a member of several music collectives in Kansai.
Kendall Wilson:
Kendall has been playing professionally since the tender age of 13 when his high school jazz quintet landed the Sunday brunch gig at the local B&B in Aptos, California. Upon graduation, he auditioned for and got the gig with a 6-piece Dixieland jazz band that was going to Walt Disney World in Florida. This led to a longstanding relationship with the Disney corporation, where he worked with such Disney musical staples as the “Walt Disney World band” and the “Kids of the Kingdom” band. After touring the states with Kenny Rogers and spending a few years in the cruise ship industry, he has now made a home for himself in Japan, where he fronts his own band and is a sideman in several other local bands.
