Shintaro Sakamoto

Shintaro Sakamoto is a Japanese singer-songwriter and producer based in Tokyo, formerly frontman of psychedelic-rock band Yura Yura Teikoku. His solo records on zelone records blend mellow funk, global pop, and psychedelic hues into breezy, genre-mashing songs. Albums include "How to Live with a Phantom" (2011), "Let's Dance Raw" (2014), "Like a Fable" (2022), and "Yoo-hoo" (2026). Live sets carry the warm, sophisticated pop mood that distinguished his post-band reinvention.
