Strong and unique character, highly involved in the japanese music scene since years, Kishino Yuichi is back with La Veuve Moustachue project, unique ultra easy pop karaoke show, merging cabaret chanson, easy-retro orchestrations and dada attitude in a sweet and humoristic gender-confusion.
Featuring Miura Yoko as piano player, the live also develops a very particular relationship between songs and video screening. Deeply related to japanese lyrics of the songs, the video space turns into a theatric background, where the use every effect becomes obvious, funny and meaningfull, where sampling of some Japanese movies never was done in such a proper, respectfull and emotive way.
And beware, above the overall light humour and live energy, you could be surprised to discover some hidden feelings: light-years away of any trendy clichés, unique universe for unique experience.
Born in 1963, Kishino Yuichi happened to work with many other head characters of the Tokyo independant scene.
Among countless Kishino-san activities, we notice an appearance on K-Hin Bros Hare Hare night compilation (1989) under the name "Constance Towers", K-Hin bros being described as "a music study group, which president is Yuichi Kishino", and Constance Towers involving people like keyboardist Mint-Lee and Kimitaka Matsumae. This track already stucks with his chansonesque reappropriation songwriting, very specific voice and overall fresh and out of time spirit.
With Kimitaka Matsumae, and also Yamaguchi Suguru (composer, Expo band member), Hibiki Tokiwa (photograph, designer), holy collectors of mondo vinyl records, they play under Space Ponch, who happened to realease spicy tiki-moog record on Jim o' Rourke label Moikai.boomp3.com
Mint-Lee (previously member of Constance Tower) is now member of Watts tower (keyboard), among other Itoken (drums, also member of Harpy and d.v.d.), Jon the dog (dance) and many more...
It is said Kishino-san got involved in Nagomu records activities, though I need more details regarding it. He's now running his own label Out One Disc who happened to release a wide diversity of artists, including Yoshihide Otomo, Oorutaichi's astonishing LP, a Sparks guide book - officialising a kind of creative international moustache connexion - and of course Les Vacances de La Veuve Moustachue cd.
Another beloved activity of Kishino-san consists in collecting 7inches among the hardcore collectors of Gira Gira Knights, very special unit involving Nagata Kazunao (Transonic), Himitsu Hakase among other members, all Focused on sweaty shiny Enka and early Kayo (here, an overview of the wonderfull giragira suit used during 2007 french tour)

Amazingly multi-task, he had an important production as a critic, with various articles and reviews regarding japanese subculture and artists.
He's also film actor (happened to work with Kiyoshi KUROSAWA, Akihito Shiota, Isshin Inudou...) and professor at the Faculty of Music and Plastic Arts at the University of Tokyo.
