2PM Show (1:30 doors)
All ages ($20 adv, $25 door)
BYOB from Sleepwalker!
We love hosting Hiroya every year or two, when he's passing through Michigan on his cross-country tours. He brings wonderful stories, original fingerstyle guitar compositions, and his trusty looping pedal. He's extremely mellow and down-to-Earth, while also being brilliant and award-winning (read below)! A show with Hiroya is a meditative, charming and beautiful experience. Join us for a delightful Sunday matinee!

Hiroya is a one-of-a-kind composer, guitarist and singer-songwriter from Kyoto, Japan. He began playing the five-string banjo when he was thirteen, and took up the guitar shortly after.
In 2000, Hiroya received a scholarship to Berklee College of Music and came to the United States. He formed his own group in Boston “INTEROCEANICO (inter-oceanic)” which consists of unique musicians from different continents including Latin Grammy Colombian singer Marta Gomez. The group released three acclaimed records (“The Other Side of the World”, “Confluencia” and “Where the River Shines”). Hiroya has released five solo albums.
Hiroya has been leading concerts internationally including several appearances at Blue Note(NYC), United Nations and Japanese National Television(NHK). Hiroya is a two time 2nd place winner of International Fingerstyle Guitar Championship in 2018 and 2022.
