Peace Concert (for peace in Asian and support of Article 9 in Japan`s Peace Constitution.) Singers: Rattlesnake Annie and Noriko ShintaniNoriko Shintani was born in Hokkaido in 1946. She is a Catholic and singer for peace.  During the height of the Vietnam War era, in 1969, her peace song “Francis no Baiwa” sold over 800,000 record albums. This moving song,  about a young girl  during the Vietnam War,  touched the hearts of many who listened to it. Noriko does volunteer work and charity concerts.  She  worked as a volunteer  with Mother Teresa in Calcutta, India and presently does concerts for peace throughout Japan. She will sing with a piano accompaniment.

Rattlesnake Annie (a Cherokee Native American) was born on a cotton-tobacco farm in Paris, Tennessee (halfway between Nashville and Memphis).  In the 1960’s, Rattlesnake moved to Texas where she began her friendship and musical collaborations with Willie Nelson. Her  songs resulted in three Billboard charted singles. Rattlesnake Annie toured all over the world including Japan. Sony Japan released her album, “Adios last Cowboy” and the album includes a  song she sings with her good friend,  Japanese singer, Tokiko Kato. In 1993, Rattlesnake Annie came with a group of Cherokee children to Shinshuu Japan International Exposition and Rattlesnake Annie`s song, “Mother Mountain,” was   the theme song. Rattlesnake Annie also gave concerts in Kobe, Japan for the victims of The Great Hanshin
Earthquake in 1995.  She sings while she plays her  guitar  and sings original and well known songs in her own style which is a mixture of blues, country, spirituals, gypsy, and jazz.
