- Takuya Ohashi
(Ohashi Takuya) - Born May 1978, 5 / AB type
Born in Tokai City, Aichi Prefecture
Vocals, Guitar, Harmonica
From early childhood, he came into contact with classical music and started learning piano from elementary school. I learned about the Beatles' Yesterday by listening to the music on hold at my friend's house, and when I was in elementary and junior high school, I walked with the Beatles.
After graduating from high school, he moved to Tokyo and formed a band, but disappeared naturally. After that, in order to write the song by himself, I asked Tokita, a local acquaintance who was also in Tokyo, to arrange and record. This triggered the formation of the gap switch.
In July 2003, made a major debut with the single "view".
In 2008, started solo activities in parallel with the activities of Sukima Switch. Released 3 singles and 1 album under the solo name. In the autumn of the same year, as a compilation of solo works, we performed live house tours of 9 performances at 18 locations nationwide and special performances at Osaka Castle Hall & Nippon Budokan. A live DVD containing the live performance will be released in March this year.
In 2009, the activities of Sukima Switch, which has grown further as an artist through solo activities, started!
