The Japanese rockabilly scene is a vibrant and energetic subculture that draws inspiration from the American rock and roll and rockabilly music of the 1950s. It combines elements of classic rock and roll with a unique Japanese twist, characterized by flashy hairstyles, elaborate retro fashion, and high-energy performances.
The Biscats have gained recognition both in Japan and internationally. They played at the 2019 Viva Las Vegas weekend in the United States, a renowned event for rockabilly enthusiasts, and they regularly perform around 40 shows a year in Japan. Misaki's involvement in the 5 Seconds of Summer video "Youngblood," which has garnered an impressive 212 million views, further boosted her visibility.
In an interview, Misaki discussed the challenges and rewards of touring. Touring can be demanding, with long hours of travel and constant performances, but Misaki finds joy in connecting with the audience and sharing her music with fans. She expressed excitement about the potential for shows during the upcoming Olympics, showcasing the rockabilly scene to a wider audience.
The podcast episode featuring Misaki provides an insightful glimpse into her life and the rockabilly scene in Japan. It was the host's first international interview, facilitated by a translator named Ryunosuke Watanabe, who ensured that the questions were accurately conveyed.
If you're interested in experiencing the Japanese rockabilly scene, it is recommended to follow Misaki on her social media pages and seize the opportunity to attend one of The Biscats' shows. The episode can also be found on YouTube, allowing listeners to delve deeper into the interview and gain a better understanding of Misaki's journey and the rockabilly culture in Japan.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
