Yoshiwara
The Edo period refers to the 265-year period that lasted from 1603 to 1868 AD. In Yoshiwara, there were many prostitutes who were sold due to poverty. They died at a young age due to poor nutrition and hygiene, and were buried at Jokan-ji Temple, which was called "throw-in temple," and their existence was forever erased from history. This song is a requiem for these prostitutes who were tossed about by the times they lived in.

Artist Profile

Jun Ibara
She has loved music since she was a child and started playing guitar at the age of 15. In college, he joined the Chanson Society of Waseda University and was exposed to many French songs. While enrolled in the French Literature Department, she studied abroad in France and worked as an interpreter and translator after returning to Japan. After working for a publishing company, she became active as the leader of "La Vie En Rose," a chanson singing group in French. At the same time, she wanted to "sing songs that bring a scene to life," so she wrote lyrics and created her own original songs. Guitarist Jerry Mera took notice of the lyrics, composed the music, and produced the recording.
