[Gentle dewdrops softly shed by the evening sky, moistening the night of the sleepless forest.]

As night falls over the world, a mysterious time unknown to anyone begins deep within the forests and meadows.

This song, "Dewdrops," was written specifically for "Garden,"-the long-awaited and momentous debut album by Ayano Tachibana, a musician and singer who has devoted her career exclusively to live performances.
While each piece on the album portrays a fleeting scene in the flow of a single day or an entire lifetime, this song alone was quietly woven within the nighttime forest as a special continuation of the story from her previous work, "Unicorn and Lullaby," which depicted the twilight hours.

Captured using just three microphones in the small forest where she creates her music and life, this song was recorded with a pure voice at the exact moment when the night dews began to gleam upon the grass. Within a sacred silence where negative space takes the lead, these fantastical tones draw the listener's imagination into a far-reaching tale.

When the melody of a breathtaking evening sky-so enchanting that even the unicorn drifts into slumber-wraps the world in its embrace, the breath of the sky gently transforms, descending to the earth as "Dewdrops." Illuminated by the moonlight, it continues to quietly shimmer into the night.

Artist Profile

  • Ayano Tachihara

    Ayano Tachihara Vocal Artist / Composer Since childhood, Ayano Tachihara has cherished the melodies that resonate within the stillness of her soul. Living amidst the lush forests of Karuizawa, Shinshu, she has spent fifteen years listening to the breath of the forest, nurturing her musical expression through a life lived in harmony with nature. In 2019, she began performing her original compositions, often incorporating improvisation. Driven by the conviction that "the resonance of the moment is the purest form of music," she focused exclusively on live performance, as if waiting for the perfect moment to ripen. To preserve these vibrations, she eventually invited world-renowned recording engineer Seigen Ono to her creative base to embark on her first recording. Her music, characterized by a voice that blends crystalline delicacy with profound, dignified strength and tranquil piano melodies, supplely aligns the atmosphere of a space while lighting a warm glow in the hearts of listeners. At the onset of Spring 2026, she finally releases her first digital recording, The Call (Izanai). This pure first cry, echoing from amidst the winter snow, travels across the world to bring a small light of spring. Her true journey has finally begun.
