アスファルト揺らす陽炎
伸びた影を追い越して
自販機の冷えたサイダー
喉の奥で弾けて消えた
変わらない街の景色も
少しだけ違って見えた
あの日より大人になった
僕らを映してるようで
過ぎ去った時間は
戻らないけれど
胸のどこかでまだ
輝いている
真夏の蜃気楼
手を伸ばせば消えそうで
それでも確かに
この胸に残ってる
笑い声も夕立ちも
帰り道の遠回りも
季節が巡るたびに
鮮やかによみがえる
河川敷に吹く風の中
くだらない話ばかり
永遠なんて言葉さえ
本気で信じていたね
失くしたものより
出会えたものを
数えて歩けたら
悪くないさ
真夏の蜃気楼
遠ざかってゆく空へ
置き忘れたはずの
想いが手を振る
茜色に染まる街
ゆっくり灯る街明かり
あの日の僕らはまだ
心の中で生きてる
真夏の蜃気楼
消えそうで消えないまま
いつまでもそっと
胸の奥に揺れてる
何十年先になっても
思い出せる夏がある
それだけで人はまた
前を向いて歩ける

EP "Summer Drive"
Four stories that color the summer, crafted with the landscapes of Hokkaido in mind.
The exhilarating feeling of driving along the coast, the bittersweet emotions that stir in the summer air, the warmth of a loved one, and the strength to keep moving toward tomorrow.
These four tracks, each with its own distinct character, come together to paint a portrait of summer memories.
We hope this record becomes a companion to your own scenery this summer.
Artist Profile
KOJI KIKUCHI
Carve trees and spin songs. Kikuchi Koji is a man who has been passionate about music in his heart while sweating on the field every day as a carpenter. When I was in high school, I participated in a local contest with a band I formed with my friends, and won the best prize and the vocal award. The applause he received on that stage gave him the dream of "living with music". About 15 years ago, they joined an indie label as a duo. He took the first step as a professional, but his activities did not last long and soon disbanded. From there on, the days that I couldn't sing as I wanted continued. Daily work, life, reality. Even so, somewhere in my heart, I couldn't give up. And the year before last. The thoughts that have been suppressed for a long time are on fire again. With courage, I applied for an audition for the current music and entertainment agency. The result is - passed. Back to the stage. To the world of music again. "From the dissolution of the duo to the passing of the audition the year before last, it was really a long time without singing. That's why I'm chewing on the joy of being able to sing in front of everyone like this every day. Solid manual work as a carpenter and straightforward words as a singer-songwriter. Using both of them as a weapon, Kikuchi Koji sings today. From the scene to the stage. The story of sweat and passion has just begun.
