Tak Solo Support |
B'z Support Members are musicians who contribute to their studio recordings as well as appear with B'z during their LIVE-GYM events playing the instruments not occupied by the primary duo of Koshi Inaba on vocals and Tak Matsumoto on guitar. The stable of support musicians that have provided drums, bass, keyboards, and other instruments during various B'z shows and in the studio include a number of esteemed musicians from various other successful music acts. Among those who have recorded and performed with B'z are American bassists Billy Sheehan of Mr. Big and Barry Sparks, who has previously toured with the Scorpions, UFO, and the Michael Schenker Group.
Typically, those touring with the band at a given time are also those providing their respective parts on the most recent recording efforts. This formation of touring and recording with the same team began in 1993 with one of the band's best-regarded albums, RUN. Additionally, active members often also appear in the band's music videos as well.
In addition to taking on various drummers, bassists, and keyboardists over time, B'z also occasionally tour with additional performers, such as brass sections, orchestras, and occasionally performance troupes providing choreography on stage behind the band's performance. In recent years, the band has added a backing guitarist and vocalist beginning when Shinichiro Ohta toured with the band in 2003 and continued through 2008. The role went absent from the band's 2009 and 2010 tours, but would be again filled in 2011 by a friend of Tak's, Yoshinobu Ohga, who was featured as one of the fellow guitarists on his concept album Theatre Of Strings in 2005.
For the purposes of this listing, members that have filled multiple roles are listed under their primary or most recognizable position, such as Akihito Tokunaga being included in the Bass section despite having contributed to arrangements. Songs on which an artist has performed another instrument or role are noted specifically next to the songs in question.

Profile: A Canadian drummer that has toured with a number of high-profile rock acts like Yngwie Malmsteen and The Michael Schenker Group, Shane began touring with B'z in 2002 and has remained with the band in the years since. His long tenure has made him the second-longest support member after keyboardist Takanobu Masuda. Shane's love of music was ignited upon seeing a KISS concert at the age of nine. After graduating high school, he toured with various music acts whilst studying percussion, piano, and jazz until eventually moving to Los Angeles in 1993. This culminated in a stint with Swedish guitar virtuoso Yngwie Malmsteen as his live drummer, which also led to Shane working with future B'z bassist Barry Sparks. The two went on to work together for many years. Ultimately, after landing the gig of B'z drummer, Shane soon introduced Barry to the band. Shane has had a long career as a drummer and has released a number of solo albums, on which he also plays guitar, bass, and provides vocals. Shane has also become close friends with Koshi, with the two frequently surfing together and Shane even assisting in crafting the English versions of various B'z songs in recent years. Additionally, Shane has released his own English version of "Brotherhood" on his 2013 album Ascend and previously released a Japanese cover of "Hadashi no Megami" in Japan. |
