「YOYOKA」13 year-old Drum Girl - Rising to Stardom in the US
Рет қаралды 160,626
Жыл бұрынThis September, one 13-year-old girl left Hokkaido, Japan for America. Her name is YOYOKA, and she is world-widely known as a rising-drummer. She has been recognized by some of the world-famous musicians, such as Led Zeppelin and Cyndi Lauper, when she produced her video on the Internet at the age of 8. And this year, she and her family decided to move to America to hone her drumming skill and music. Why did she make such a decision at her age? We followed one of her days in the US.

Yoyoka is one of the best drummers in the world, even though she is still learning. She is not just a drummer, but a musician. She listens to not just the beats, but the tone of the instruments. I am looking forward to her incorporating even more percussion instruments into her musical vocabulary. Wishing all the best to her and her family. 👋

やはりアメリカはよいでしょう。日本では比較されてしまいますが、アメリカは個人の才能を伸ばすので、日本のようにドラムをやってて将来どうなるのという感覚はないです。開放されてよかったですね。私もアメリカに始めてきたときにそれを感じました。アメリカに来る機会がなければ来ませんでしたが、一度体験してしまったので、そのときに強い決意を持ってしまったんですね。それから近所付き合い、親戚付き合い、社会の常識で縛られることもありません。のびのびとできます。しっかり感覚を磨いて創造性を豊かにして新しいものを生み出してくださいね。それは自然に現れてくるものなので、いつも自然でよいかと思います。

I’ve been following Yoyoka’s drummer for 4 years. I’ve learned to truly appreciate what it takes to be a drummer at her level and this is backed up by some top musicians and drum instructors. Hey, just watch a couple of her KZfaq videos. She rocks and can play some complicated songs. IMO…Excellent drummer and I’m happy she’s in the US. Perfect place for her to pursue her love of music and I look forward to watching her evolution. She’s got very cool parents that support her along this journey and brother Shido is a diamond in the rough. Welcome Yoyoka, enjoy this journey and enjoy being a kid too.

I’ve watched and listened to probably every YT video Yoyoka has put out and they are excellent. Ive come to truly appreciate drumming because of her and the reaction videos. I’ve also read the comments and I can tell you 99.99% of them say that Yoyoka is an excellent drummer, musician AND a cool person. I’m so happy she has seen her dream come true and made it to the US. It looks like she has found a cool school and already warmed the hearts of her classmates. I look forward to watching her evolve into what will certainly be a great drummer and musician. It should also be said that she has the coolest parents. Show them what you can do Yoyoka. Maybe design your own line of drumsticks. Hahaha.

Based on your comment I have the solution. She needs to be involved somehow in replanting trees she uses so many drumsticks. Either that or buy a forest and charge admission to visit the "YOYOKA Woods Nature Conservancy". Cost of admission is $10 (One Pair of Drumsticks).

Seems like she accomplishes "One of her dreams" almost weekly now, right! She has big dreams, and unlike most of us, they are ALL within her reach. She will probably need to adjust her time frame on playing at the Super Bowl though. In her mind she had that scheduled for this year. Might take a bit longer, but IT WILL happen!

To most easily understand Yoyoka's natural genius, you have to know John Bonham well, understand how this greatest rock drummer ever is considered impossible to fully imitate, and then see Yoyoka playing Bonham's music perfectly with seemingly no effort. This is what makes musicians' jaws drop when she plays.
