Bio

Organic acoustic melodies and poetic storytelling – Saiichi Sugiyama

 Hello, this is Saiichi. I am a British-based singer-songwriter originally from Tokyo. I released my first album in 1994 in London and I have been at this for a little while.

The nature of Surrey Hills surrounding me in my home of last 20 years is proving to be a catalyst in my fifth decade of songwriting for unapologetically sweet, nostalgic and melancholic melodies and words about wonders of a life led, innocent joy and beauty, ageing and bygone glory, longing and most importantly love – before it gets too late.

In the past, I was lucky enough to work with and count as my mentor, the late great, Pete Brown, the lyricist for Cream in 2000s.  For my latest records (yes, there are two+ in the pipeline),  I have been privileged to work with James Raymond, a regular collaborator with the late great David Cosby as my producer and multi-instrumentalist.

I have been taking my songs for a test drive with an acoustic group that features Ben Reed on bass guitar and Basia Barts on violin who you will see on the video of our recent outing at London’s Bush Hall
