T-Square is a Japanese jazz fusion band that was formed in 1976. Its original lineup included guitarist Masahiro Andoh, bassist Mitsuru Sutoh, saxophonist, flutist and EWI player Takeshi Itoh, keyboardist Hirotaka Izumi, and drummer Hiroyuki Noritake. They are known for songs such as "Truth," "Japanese Soul Brothers," "Takarajima," and "Omens of Love" among others. "Truth" later became the theme for Japan's Formula One racing events.

History

The band was originally named "The Square," but changed its name to "T-Square" in 1988 when it had its first tour and album release in the United States. In 1998, the prodigal Masato Honda left the group to pursue his solo career. Takahiro Miyazaki would replace him on Saxophone/EWI duties until 2001, when Takeshi Itoh would fill the role to the present day.
