Artist History Formed by American drummer, DJ, and TV personality Gordy Carlson, Trouble Tribe Japan was originally grouped to perform somecover tunes at Osaka's ROCK ROCK Music Bar. After two rehearsals, T.T. found that they had a great sound andstarted writing songs and gigging immediately. In no time the band had a following, pressuring localradio station FM Osaka to play their music. On any given night you can walk into the Hard Rock Cafe Osaka and hear their music being played. In spite oftheir popularity, they refuse to give up their freedom by playing for a Japanese record label. Doing it allon their own, they believe that it is just as important to rock two people as it is to play to a thousand.
