There are, at least, five artists known as Miyagi: 1) A German disco / band. 2) A UK / funk quintet. 3) A Mexico band. 4) A USA band. 5) A pseudonym of David Best (Fujiya & Miyagi founder).

1) A Münster, Germany disco / post-punk band. In early 2008, they were signed by Berlin based label Richard Mohlmann Records. A self-produced EP was released in 2007. Finally born in Nov. 2008, their debut album named “Hydraulic Son”. Miyagi was formed as a three-piece instrumental band in 2004. Now: Stefan Matysick (voc, dr), Daniel Ortega (dr, voc), Felix Prescher (g), Jörn Krüßel (g) and Axel Schinkel (b).

2) An Edinburgh, UK harmony-soaked ‘country surf’ / funk quintet. All multi-instrumentalists, each with their own unique singing voice. Following in the footsteps of The Band and The Byrds, the Edinburgh band have no frontman, preferring to let the songs dictate who should sing, whether alone or in 5-part harmony.

Encouraged by indie record label interest Miyagi self-produced and released their first EP ‘Dragonfly’ in 2005, which quickly sold out, and was named in Music News Scotland’s top 12 CDs of last year. The band are now going one step further and recording their debut album set for release later this year. This hasn’t slowed Miyagi’s live performances, however, and they have upcoming shows in Edinburgh, Glasgow and beyond. There are also plans afoot for a UK-wide tour to support the release of the album, later this year.
