"It's definitely a dream come true playing guitar alongside KAMIJO. If my 13-year old self knew about this, he would not believe it. I'm grateful for this opportunity and I'm looking forward to seeing all these European countries I haven't been in before. This is also the first time for me playing guitar on stage in 10 years. Difficult songs as well. I'm thankful that KAMIJO trusts my ability to show his music justice. And I will certainly do my very best to make that reality." - YOHIO
