Tak Matsumoto News

Now that’s a big surprise here. After scheduling additional live performances as well as performing at the Tokyo Jazz Festival 2010, Larry Carlton and Tak Matsumoto are going to perform in Taipei (Taiwan) on October 17th. So that means, there may still be hope that shows in the US and Europe are planned. The show in Taipei might just be the beginning of an international tour. We’ll keep you updated!

Additionally, on September 1st, the DVD release of Larry Carlton’s and Tak Matsumoto’s “TAKE YOUR PICK” tour in Japan was announced. It is going to be released on October 27th and will feature the live performance in Blue Note Tokyo. Further details will be released soon!

Also, to promote their show in Taipei, a video was put up in which Larry and Tak tell their fans that they’re going to perform in Taipei on October 17th.
