With an invented origin story that they were created by Jimi Hendrix to be his “ultimate life forms” and then frozen in Antarctic ice for years, Man with a Mission was formed in Tokyo’s Shibuya in 2010 consisting of the members who are only known by their stage names. They’re vocalist Tokyo Tanaka, guitarist Jean-Ken Johnny, bassist Kamikaze Boy, drummer Spear Rib and DJ Santa Monica.
