Lyric

Starry Blue

Rio Inyaku

Hear the wind

Blow from the beyond

Hear the voice of the earth

Time falls like a drizzle

On our crying forests and shores

The starry blue ocean

Is a cradle

Remember the eternal memory

Here to sing the song of Lives

Heaven will bloom on the earth

“I Am Who I Am”

Whispers the breeze

Surfing the inner breath

Be the sky and feel the siblings

No need to be scared

A promised rainbow of tears

Appears

Above our old beach

Soaked in songs

Keep the light

And brighten the corner

Heaven will bloom on the earth

The starry blue ocean

Is a cradle

Remember the eternal memory

Here to sing the song of Lives

Heaven shall bloom on the earth

"Garuda Ryukyu"
~The sound of the sanshin echoes across the equator to the future~

The title track "Garuda Ryukyu" was created in collaboration with Indonesia's largest creative eisa group, U-maku Eisa Shinka Indonesia, to commemorate the 18th anniversary of its establishment, and received high acclaim and coverage in the Indonesian media.

The album includes "PACIFIC," which depicts Okinawan immigrants to the world, "Heavenly Rainbow" and "Starry Blue," which sing of our precious lives, "Arirang" in Korean and Okinawan, "Kijimuna goes to Hawaii," which incorporates Hawaiian words, and " Eight Views of Ryukyu" which is based on a Ryukyuan Chinese poem. Also included a cover of "Shinkanucha", the theme song of Worldwide Eisa Festival 2011.

Rio INYAKU's first album "Ryukyu Revolution" charted as the top TuneCore J-POP album in Canada and Singapore, and his music has many fans overseas. His 2nd album "Garuda Ryukyu," released with great enthusiasm, is a new breath of Okinawan music nurtured through cross-cultural exchange.
