Steve Lukather and Larry Carlton will be performing in Japan, 15 years after their last performance together in Japan. Their last collaboration 15 years ago was recorded and released as a live album titled \u201cNo Substitutions – Live In Osaka\u201d which won a Grammy Award for Best Pop Instrumental Album in 2002. The Japanese audience will definitely be able to expect quality music by some top-notch musicians at this upcoming concert. Steve Lukather took some time to answer a short interview with MUSE ON MUSE about the upcoming shows in Japan, as well as about the new TOTO album.<\/p>\n

Muse On Muse : You are scheduled to do a show with in Japan Larry Carlton in January. What can the fans expect to see for this upcoming show?<\/span>
\nSteve Lukather : Well.. we are just starting to talk about that. What music we want to play.I think we will do some stuff off record we won a Grammy for .. 3 of those and then some fresh material as well. I am writing a piece with Jeff Babko,we are doing a little tribute to Joe Sample and Jeff Porcaro and some vocal tunes this time. Some blues stuff.. no pop music per se. It is gonna be a good show I know that. Killer band and Larry and I have not played together in 15 years so.. I can’t believe it has been that long but I am a different person in every way now so I look forward to playing these shows with a clear mind body and spirit. It will be much different this time. Better!<\/p>\n

MM : Do you plan to do any live recordings for the shows in Japan?<\/span>
\nSL : Yes a live DVD is planned. We shall see how it turns out. Probably recording in Tokyo this time. We shall see..<\/p>\n

MM : We heard that the new TOTO album is done. What’s it going to sound like?<\/span>
\nSL : New Toto is done and will be out around March 24 with a 2 year world tour to starting in May in Europe, then USA then in 2016 we will be all over the world. The new music is very fresh and exciting. I am so spud of it and we worked SO hard on it. It is more the floor up to Toto IV than any other record since. It is a real ‘ band record’ in that everyone sings and writes and gets to shine. The music is strong and classic Toto with a 2015 vibe to it. You will be the judge.<\/p>\n

MM : When do you plan to tour Japan with TOTO?<\/span>
\nSL : 2016 for sure. NO dates yet but we will be back for sure!<\/p>\n

MM : Please give a message to your Japanese fans who are looking forward to seeing your show in January.<\/span>
\nSL : SO excited to come back to Japan. I love it so much in your country. Larry and I are bringing a kick ass show that will be diverse and show the many sides we have musically and will surely be a blast. It is all but sold out so get your tix now while there are still a few left! Thesis a one of a kind show and we dontknow when or if we will ever do it again so.. BE there! I also want to thank all the Japanese fans and friends for the good vibe and well wishes and wish you all very best new year and I will see you soon!<\/p>\n
