Based in Portland, Oregon, Jason Okamoto combines elements of Bossa Nova, Flamenco, and Gypsy Jazz using primarily classical guitar. His 2010 release "Solo Trio" featured Gypsy Jazz standards along with his original compositions. In early 2018, Okamoto released "Busquer" featuring 12 original pieces.
