Artist Profile

Back and TipFormed in 2017 by university students in Kochi, Japan, Back and Tip is a six-piece band blending jazz, fusion, soul, and pop into their own distinctive style of music they call "Jazz Pop." Featuring a horn section, the band combines the spontaneity of improvisation and the dynamic interplay of a live ensemble with memorable, soulful melodies. Since expanding their activities to Osaka in 2022, Back and Tip have performed at events such as Takatsuki Jazz Street and Shinkaichi Music Festival, shared the stage with artists and bands including BREIMEN, Yoshihiro Tsujimoto, and bimbonbam Gakudan, and toured across western Japan. In 2026, they released their first best-of album, *Yakuman*. The same year, they became official artists of FM802's "MUSIC BUSKER IN UMEKITA" program, performing officially sanctioned street live shows at Grand Green Osaka and Grand Front Osaka. With the freedom of a jam session and the heart of a great pop melody, Back and Tip deliver a sound that captivates audiences.
