The fourth Fanta commercial featuring Friedman in the campaign is currently on the air in Japan. The latest TV commercial features Friedman and the rest of the FANTA band jamming inside the bullet train for some very unsuspecting passengers.

After completing the majority of the recording Los Angeles' most legendary recording studio, The Village Recorder, Marty Friedman is back in Tokyo, Japan putting the finishing touches on his latest instrumental solo album.

Friedman's ninth album, "Tokyo Jukebox", was released in Europe on February 22, 2010 via Mascot Records. The CD features extensive liner notes (written by Friedman in the "story behind the song" format) which are exclusive to the European release.
