Miyavi the larger than life Japanese recording artist, entertainer and samurai guitarist is headed back to Toronto!
In 1999, after quitting high school at the age of 17, Miyavi moved to Tokyo with only his guitar in hand, and found success as the guitarist for the visual kei indie band Due’ Le Quarts and as part of the J-Rock supergroup S.K.I.N.

As a solo artist, Miyavi is a superstar in his home country of Japan and has a dedicated and loyal world-wide following amongst J-Rock fans.

In 2008, Miyavi launched his first world tour with 36 shows in 14 countries including his US debut at a secret show at MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas, in February 2007. In May of that year, Miyavi was the featured artist at the J Rock Revolution concert held at the Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles. The concert sold out in one day. One of the highlights of the performance was the 6 ft, 800 lbs Taiko drum that was shipped all the way from Japan for the performance.

A true Japanese spirit with a western influence, Miyavi wowed Toronto on his NEO TOKYO SAMURAI BLACK TOUR in 2010 and is returning for his ʻWHATʼS MY NAMEʼ WORLD TOUR in 2011 at The Phoenix Concert Theatre.
