ASA-CHANG & Junray perform live at TivoliVredenburg's Pandora during Le Guess Who? 2024.

ASA-CHANG is the founder and original bandmaster of Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra, who, upon leaving the ensemble in the early nineties, formed ASA-CHANG & Junray with programmer and guitarist Hidehiko Urayama. Now, the eccentric duo is accompanied by violinist Anzu Suhara. Named after their unique Jun-Ray Tronics, ASA-CHANG & Junray's band name also means 'pilgrimage', which makes sense; back from a pandemic-driven hiatus, they return to take music to places it has never been before.
