▼Comment from Satoshi Yuki
The president built a church in Shibuya.
I have never been to a church, but I really like it and feel that it is a special place.
I feel like my heart is exposed, I think everyone in the church is confessing something in their heart.
On this day, I will be the first to make a confession through music.

Kariyushi58 is in charge of producing the stage theme song starring Kenichi Matsuyama. The collaboration MV is also completed.

The stage play "hana-1970, the day Koza burnt-" starring Kenichi Matsuyama, which depicts the people living in Okinawa just before the handover, will open on Sunday, January 9 next year.
The folk song "Where did the flowers go", which is used as the song in the play, has been covered by many artists in Japan, such as The Peanuts, Kiyoshiro Imawano, and Mr. Children, and is the number one song in the world. It is also said to be a famous anti-war song.

Chika Uehara, a rookie actress from Okinawa who plays the role of Nanako, is in charge of the main vocals. Where have you been?
The collaboration MV has also been completed.
It will be directed by Kazuhiro Taira, the scriptwriter and director of the movie Miracle City Koza, which will be released next spring.

This music video is a story about a bar on "Koza Gate Street" leading to Kadena Air Base, and was filmed as if Kariyushi 58 Shingo Maekawa and Yukihiro Araya introduced the current Koza cityscape while walking. People of many nationalities, including US soldiers, come and go.
It is a video where you can feel the “Chanpuru culture” of Koza, which is also called “the city of music”.

[Comment from Shingo Maekawa]
If there was heaven and there were angels, how would you feel as you watched life vanish in the torrent of time?
I felt that Mr. Uehara's voice had the power to show the answer.
I strongly believe that her songs, like innocent prayers, will bring peace to the world.
……. Shingo Maekawa (Kariyushi 58)

Kenichi Matsuyama and Kariyushi 58 will be co-starring for the first time since Matsuyama Kenichi starred in the Nippon Television drama "Zen Geba" aired in January 2019, and Kariyushi 58 was in charge of the theme song "Sayonara" (https:/ /www.ntv.co.jp/zenigeba/).

Before starting training for this work, Kenichi Matsuyama, who went to Okinawa to study the situation and the historical background in preparation for the role, published a three-way talk with Maekawa and Araya.

— Solar eclipse Natsuko’s comment —
I wrote a 30-second song for SMCC's TV commercial, and decided to write it out in full length and release it digitally!
hunch means "premonition". Just before something is about to happen, a feeling like a whirlwind always blows through my body. I packed the excitement of that moment into this song with sounds and wordplay.
Are you feeling haunted lately? Have you forgotten how to get your heart racing?

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. In the winter of his second year of high school, he started full-scale artist activities in his hometown of Morioka, Iwate Prefecture. His powerful singing voice that directly touches people's heartstrings, his meticulously crafted world of lyrics, and his composing techniques have attracted attention, and he has performed at many large-scale festivals such as "ROCK IN JAPAN FESTIVAL" and "FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL". He continues his activities based on his unique play style, which expresses instruments such as guitar and bass, and sometimes even percussion parts such as drums, with a single piano. In addition to playing the piano, he often performs in a simple form with only piano and drums at his live performances. It has been transformed into a premium, extraordinary space. Strength, weakness, sharpness, and ephemerality, the piano music that runs at full speed pierces the listener's heart and provides a unique musical experience.

Nisshoku Natsuko, Sumitomo Mitsui Card's all-in-one payment terminal "stera terminal (hereafter referred to as Stella)", newly written music for new TVCM

Nisshoku Natsuko, a solo artist who plays piano from Hanamaki City, Iwate Prefecture, has written a new song "hunch_A" for the new TV commercial of Sumitomo Mitsui Card's all-in-one payment terminal "stera terminal". Satoshi Iizuka (Tokyo 2003), Munetaka Aoki, and Kotone Furukawa are appointed as CM characters, and the new TV commercial "The feeling at that time" Clerk / Manager / Customer (15 seconds, 30 seconds each) will be released on October 9. It will be broadcast nationwide from Sunday (Saturday).

This TV commercial features the manager (Mr. Iizuka) of a small bakery that uses Stella, the female clerk (Mr. Furukawa) who works with a smile, and a regular customer (Mr. Aoki's daily life story. All three stories cut out the same scene, but by making each of the three characters the main characters, they unintentionally express their shared desire to create a nice shop from different perspectives. The song "hunch_A" was created with only piano and voice on the theme of "premonition" that something might happen in the daily lives of these three people, and it is used in all three episodes. Please enjoy the atmosphere that changes with each story.

----- Solar eclipse Natsuko's comment -----
Based on the concept of "a song that makes you imagine that something is about to happen", we aimed for an exhilaration like the wind blowing through with the theme of "hunch". Since the commercial is set in a bakery, I have a personal image of myself thinking, if I were to enter a bakery and hear a song like this, I would be thrilled and buy a lot. I would be happy if the sound adds some interesting and new "premonition" to the daily life of the three people who appear in the commercial.
