Singer-songwriter Eri Taguchi and music designer Gaku Ninomiya wrote the songs "Smile for you" and "JOY" for "Overflowing", a solo exhibition of illustrator Natsuki Minami, who draws charming illustrations based on the concept of "Happy through eyes" and is supported by many famous people such as Naomi Watanabe and Suzanne.
The solo exhibition "Overflowing" held from April to August 2024 at three locations: Karuizawa Bookstore Nakakaruizawa, Nara Tsutaya, and Ropponmatsu Tsutaya.
The jacket is the main visual for the "Overflowing" solo exhibition.
From the main visual, two songs "JOY" and "Smile for you" were created to represent Natsuki Minami's illustrations, which have two sides: a smile like the sun in "summer" and a moon standing alone in the world, overflowing with small pleasures and making people laugh because you are there.
To commemorate the distribution release, a music keychain with a record specification that can be held over a smartphone to listen to the songs is available for the first time!
Please enjoy this item that allows you to carry your "overflowing" smile and the songs with you at all times and connect with happiness.
