Tokyo Tramps - 2 albums: Rollin' Rockland Blues Hour / Bound For Glory

TOKYO TRAMPS is a 3-piece/all Japanese band, whose sounds are influenced by blues, country, and classic rock. The band was formed by Satoru Nakagawa while he was attending Berklee College of Music in Boston, and named after a Springsteen's song, "Born to Run" (tramps like us, baby we were born to run.).
