Natsuko Nisshoku was in charge of the theme song "appetite" for the previous local version, and will be in charge of the opening theme for the national version. She stands at the entrance to the story and colors the opening with a vivid piano melody.

●Natsuko Solar Eclipse Comment
I get to meet Mariko-san and President Sakakibara again! And this time it's the national edition! Congratulations!!
In the first season, I was involved in the theme song that concludes the couple's food journey, but in the second season, I will be in charge of the opening song that marks the beginning of their adventure. I am very happy to be involved again, thank you!

To find something delicious, we must first go outside. Whether it's on foot, by car, or by plane, hundreds of kilometers away or just around the corner, there is a path to the destination and the scenery. If there is a dream at the goal, the road leading to it will naturally be vivid.
I believe that "Wind, Flowers, Noise, City" will be the prologue to the story of the two of you. I'm looking forward to the weekly broadcasts with bated breath!

[Episode 1 Synopsis]
The president of the Sakakibara Hotel Group, Soichiro Sakakibara (Masato Ibu), is forced to make a decision by seven executives and is racking his brains. Mariko Onodera (Sara Shida) is on a long vacation and works in the secretarial department, where the rationalistic young employee Rintaro Shinjo (Kentaro Maeda) is assigned.
At that time, Sakakibara was scheduled to go on a business trip to Aichi, and the secretarial department was in a panic. "I will accompany the president on his business trip and attend to everything he does. Of course, I will also be in charge of what he eats." It is a difficult task to satisfy Sakakibara, who is a gourmet and will never eat the same thing again.
Shinjo, who was appointed as the "business trip attendant" in place of Mariko, attends Sakakibara to Aichi specialties, but finds himself in a big pinch. Then Mariko, who is supposed to be on vacation, shows up and introduces the two of them to Pakistani curry for some reason! Sakakibara is surprised by the unexpected "betrayal meal"...

<Natsuko Solar Eclipse Profile>
Born May 8, 1991 in Hanamaki City, Iwate Prefecture.
Started playing the piano at the age of 9 and writing songs at the age of 12. From the age of 17, she started full-scale music activities based in Morioka as "Nisshoku Natsuko". The meticulously crafted lyric world and composition techniques that sway the heartstrings have attracted attention, and have appeared in many large festivals. Released in 2021, "Anti-Freeze" was selected as a prize-winning work at the 14th CD Shop Awards 2022, and in recent years he has also written many new movie theme songs and commercial music. Nisshoku Natsuko's dense music that she creates one after another knows no bounds in creativity, and her musical ability and performance, including her unique composition style that expresses guitar, bass, and sometimes even percussion parts such as drums with a single piano, are outstanding. It goes beyond the imagination and framework of a piano-playing artist. Strength, weakness, sharpness, ephemeralness, the piano music that runs at full speed pierces the listener's heart and provides a unique musical experience.

Push Pull Pot writes new theme song for new news and information program in their hometown of Ishikawa

It has been announced that Push Pull Pot, a four-piece band from Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture, will be performing the theme song for a new program starting on local Ishikawa Television.

The song is a new song written for Ishikawa-san Palette, a news and information program broadcast on Ishikawa TV from Monday to Friday evenings. It is a song created with the theme of "palette" in the program title, depicting the streets and sky of Ishikawa Prefecture from the perspective of an artist. The first broadcast will be on Monday, January 6, 2025. Be sure to check it out.

─ Push-Pull Pot Daiki Yamaguchi (Vo.Gt.) Comments ─

I have drawn this artwork based on the theme of "palette," depicting the cityscape and sky of Ishikawa Prefecture where we live, from an artist's perspective.
“We were all given colors from the beginning. I feel that if we layer the colors of the city, the laughter, and the future of our beloved city together, we can paint it.”

The sound also expresses the overlapping of colors, so be sure to pay close attention when listening.

I hope that the new program "Ishikawa-san Palette" will be a program where everyone's colors overlap little by little and we all create it together.

▼Program Overview

A four-piece band from Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture.
The members are vocalist and guitarist Yamaguchi Daiki, guitarist and chorusist Kuwahara Takuya, bassist and chorusist Horiuchi Kazunori, and drummer and chorusist Myojin Ryutaro.
The band was formed in a light music club at Kanazawa Institute of Technology, and the current members joined in 2019.
In 2021, STAY FREEEE!!!!!!!! released their first nationwide distribution mini-album, "Just As We Are."
The gentle yet powerful singing voice of vocalist and guitarist Yamaguchi, who also writes the lyrics and composes the music, and the band's passionate performances that touch the hearts of those in attendance have attracted a lot of attention, resulting in repeated entry restrictions at circuit festivals around the country.
Although based in Kanazawa, they perform over 120 live shows a year and have appeared at major festivals such as "JAPAN JAM," "VIVA LA ROCK," and "SWEET LOVE SHOWER," steadily spreading their name across the country.
