Here is some background information from bass player/leader/manager George Furukawa:
Fusion, a Top 40 variety cover band, was formed in April 2005 by bass player/leader/manager
George Furukawa. The band has evolved into its current blend of musicians. Fusion is a vocally-
driven band with roots in diverse musical influences from classic rock to contemporary R&B/
rock/pop.
Fusion consists of up to three front line lead vocalists (one male and two females) supported by
a four piece rhythm section (guitar, bass, keyboards, and drums). Fusion’s three front line lead
vocalists are youthful, dynamic performers.
Fusion plays something for everyone – including rock, neo-soul, R&B, easy listening, disco, and
Top 40. Fusion tailors its play list to fit a variety of events, including birthday parties, retirement
parties, graduation parties, corporate banquets, reunion parties, weddings, wedding anniversaries,
and so forth.
Fusion is open to learning songs upon request, if provided with advance notice. Fusion also
dresses appropriately for all shows and has a no drugs/alcohol policy before and during
rehearsals and bookings.
