In order to express the image that date leader Naokazu Tone had for Tone Quartet, production for their latest album ‘Tomorrow’ was carried out using vintage recording equipment.

This, the imagery of Tone, also succeeded in uniting the musically diverse and rich individuality of four musicians, and at the same time creating a complete piece of art, subliminally reminiscent of a 1960s Atlantic Records production.

Naokazu Tone wanted to create music unique to the Osaka jazz scene when he first brought together the sound character of three musicians and himself, later to be Tone Quartet, in 2006.

Tomoko Kageyama radiates fairytale, dream inducing sound. Melodic beauty is born out of Yukari Sekiya’s playing, and the pushing, grinding, dynamic swing flows from the sticks of Hiroshi Mizukami. A new sound is formed, a sound that is Tone Quartet. Feel the music of Tone Quartet, feel the diverse sound character summed up and represented on their latest release `Tomorrow`. Tone Quartet is here, summed up.
