Born in Okayama, Japan, Taca, deeply intrigued by this singular instrument, the accordion, begins to play it at the age of 9. A passion that will not leave him anymore. At 20, he decided to explore musical life more intensely and then left in Italy, the cradle of this wind instrument. Then, in France, another country of the accordion, he worked under the direction of Frédéric Guérouet, professor emeritus to study a classic repertoire.

Taca likes diversity and lends itself to all kinds of services. His albums tell stories of wind and silence. Blown and rhythmic legends. Solo or trio with a double bass player and a percussionist, Taca travels on the blades.
