Shigeru Joshima (城島 茂, Jōshima Shigeru; born November 17, 1970) is a Japanese musician, actor and agricultural entrepreneur.[1][2][3] He was the leader and main guitarist of Tokio, a musical group of Starto Entertainment, formerly from Johnny & Associates, until its disbandment in 2025.[4]

Musical career

[edit]

Prior to debuting with Tokio, Joshima was a backup-dancer for various Johnny's Entertainment boy bands at the time.[5] He also formed temporary music units during that time, such as Tokio's predecessor, Tokio Band,[6] or the Joshima Band with other to-be Tokio members. In 1990 he became the leader and guitarist of Tokio, but it wasn't until 1994 that the band debuted.[5]

Joshima, Masahiro Matsuoka and Taichi Kokubun, the remaining members of Tokio, after Tatsuya Yamaguchi's contract termination because of a scandal and subsequent suspension of musical activities of the group in 2018,[7] and Tomoya Nagase's decision to retire in 2020,[8] decided to disband after a report of Kokubun's violation of compliance by Nippon TV, which resulted in his suspension of activities.[4]

Joshima announced in January 2026 his intention of continuing with his entertainment career.[9]

Acting career

[edit]

Joshima has had parts in various dramas since 1989. One of his first roles ever was as a supporting cast member in the show Gomendou Kakemasu, where he acted alongside Kazuya Takahashi of Otokogumi and Naoto Endou of former Johnny's band Ninja.[10] He has also hosted Ai no Apron and Leader's How-To Book, Brain Power Expedition Quiz! Homunculus with fellow member Kokubun, and with other Tokio members, hosted Gachinko!, The Tetsuwan Dash, Mentore G, and 5LDK.[2]
