About This Event
Tokyo Music Lounge provides a space where the drinks are smooth, the vibe is mellow, and the crowd feels like old friends (with a few new ones you’re about to meet).
kick back at the lounge area for easy conversations and good company. Then drift into the next room and get hit with sounds you’ve never heard before - live sets from rising artists you didn’t know you needed.
No pressure. Just music, good people, and that Tokyo energy.
Come hang out. Stay for the vibe.
Artist information
◾️ Mariki Bongui ◾️
Marki Bongui is an acoustic duo consisting of vocalist/guitarist Marcy and percussionist Hiroki. Marcy, with roots in Sri Lanka, brings an ennui-tinged voice, while Hiroki, rooted in Japan, adds warm, human rhythms. Together, they craft a sound where nostalgia and freshness quietly coexist.
Their aim isn’t polished perfection, but something raw, imperfect, and unmistakably human. Switching naturally between Japanese and English, their music gives gentle shape to unspoken thoughts and uncertain emotions.
