The Deep jazz club, located near Ginza and Shimbashi stations in Tokyo, Japan (website, map).

Vocalist Akiko Suda and pianist Yuichi Narita playing at The Deep in 2016.

The Deep is a newer gem in Ginza that balances elegance inherited from the upscale neighborhood and comfortable coziness imparted by the staff and layout. The friendly owner Ayako-san aims to provide a sophisticated atmosphere and a down-to-earth ambience.

This jazz room is simply furnished with a grand piano in the center surrounded by couch seating and a small bar area. It’s like an intimate living room providing a good setting for swing tunes, soul music, and jazzy romantic ballads. Rhodes and Wurlitzer electric pianos are also tucked away in the bar, taken out and used by some musicians on various nights.
