Guitarist / Songwriter / Arranger

 


Matsuo Kazuhiro (a.k.a Matsuo Banna, 1964- ) is a guitarist, songwriter and arranger who belonged to the band No! Galers and now to The Trophyz. He played the guitar for many of Amuro Namie’s songs between 1996 and 2000.

His collaborations include TM Network, Suzuki Ami, Tohko, Auga Yaya, globe, KOKIA and many others.

In September 2017, he dedicated a post to Amuro Namie on twitter.

He thanked her for her hard work even though he admitted it was still a bit early to retire.
