Lesson IKagawa Ryo

Ryo Kagawa “Lesson I” (Kyokun I)
Lesson IKagawa Ryo

Ryo Kagawa, a singer-songwriter indispensable to any discussion of Japan’s folk scene, was born in Hikone, Shiga Prefecture.

While rooted in pure folk, his music was distinguished by the incorporation of folk rock and West Coast-inspired sounds.

An impromptu appearance at the 1970 Nakatsugawa Folk Jamboree led to his debut the following year with the classic album “Kyōkun” (Lessons).

The oft-told anecdote that Takuro Yoshida once said he was “jealous of the songs Ryo Kagawa wrote” speaks to Kagawa’s extraordinary talent.

Unmoved by commercial success, he stayed true to his path as a traveling troubadour.

His way of life—and music—brims with a charm that deserves to be heard by listeners who believe in the power of words and want to immerse themselves deeply in the world of song.
