Nao Yoshioka Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

Tokyo ✈️ New York, Soul Singer New EP : https://naoyoshioka.lnk.to/FAAB_PSSV A contemporary soul singer with a powerful, New York-honed voice, Nao Yoshioka blends modern sensibilities with a sound rooted in soul’s rich history. Born in Japan and moving to New York alone, her encounter with soul music, especially a Sam Cooke classic, sparked her passion to create songs that move people deeply. Her soulful tone, reminiscent of Aretha Franklin and Whitney Houston, reflects both her strength and experiences as an outsider overcoming adversity. Nao’s live performances have gone viral, with one YouTube video surpassing 4.9 million views. She has headlined stages such as Blue Note New York and London Jazz Cafe, and appeared at major festivals like Java Jazz and Capital Jazz Fest, earning international recognition. As the first Japanese artist to reach No. 32 on the Billboard UAC chart, she’s collaborated with artists including John Batiste, Nathan East, Eric Roberson, Mamas Gun, Devin Morrison, and Blue Lab Beats. In 2024, Nao released her fifth album Flow and toured Europe. The following year, she performed across the U.S. East Coast, at Blue Note Beijing and Shanghai, and headlined Malaysia’s Northern International Audio & Visual Show before returning to Europe. She closed 2025 with a U.S. tour highlighted by Missy Lane’s Block Party in Durham. Nao continues to shine globally, bridging cultures and inspiring through her heartfelt, uplifting soul music.
