As the sun began to set on this year's Summer Sonic, London-born singer Tom Misch took to the Beach Stage for his first live appearance in Tokyo.
Misch, who released his debut album "Geography" in April, performs an upbeat mix of lo-fi funk and soul. It's minimalist, feel-good music that was well-received by the Tokyo crowd.
"Today's gig was a lot better than yesterday (in Osaka)," said the 23-year-old Misch after his performance. "My usual drummer couldn't make the show at the last minute, which was a really big stress 'cause no one else really knew the set. Luckily the sound tech guy with our crew plays drums, so he filled in. It was a different vibe. Yesterday was the first time playing together."
