Depapepe


Depapepe is the transliteration of the Japanese name (デパペペ) for the acoustic guitar musical duo of Takuya Miura (born April 5th, 1983) and Yoshinari Takuoka (born on July 15th, 1977). The duo formed in 2002. They both shared the dream of creating songs which can convey their emotions, whether sad or happy feelings.


From their native Kobe to Osaka to Kyoto, they gather a circle of people wherever they perform on the street. With only two acoustic guitars, they articulate imagined sceneries and emotions; their heartfilling, swinging sound and yearning melody provide a comfortable, enjoyable and highly compassionate atmosphere. Buoyed by the rapidly expanding instrumental music market, Tokuoka gives full play to his talent as melody maker, while Miura sensitively yet boldly embodies his emotions with help of his guitar.
