Toshimitsu Deyama (出山利三 Deyama Toshimitsu?, born October 10, 1965 in Chiba, Japan), better known by his stage name Toshi, is one of the founders and the former vocalist of popular band X Japan, which disbanded in 1997. In the following years, he devoted his professional career to "healing music", traveling Japan and other countries to perform acoustic concerts for small audiences. More recently, a reunion of X Japan was announced for late 2007, in which Toshi will be participating as well.[1][2]
