Message from the Artist:
As the years pass and I look back on life, my heart swells with indescribable emotions that unfold from a single photograph or a scene that flits across my mind's eye.
My second album, Inishie ~ Nostalgia, was arranged and produced while savoring those fleeting moments when distant memories etched in my heart suddenly resurface.
I would be delighted if you could listen to it feeling a sense of nostalgia, bittersweetness, and comfort.
I hope it evokes the cherished scenes of those days in the hearts of everyone who listens.
