Three months before this single was released, my father was hospitalized in a large hospital due to bedsores. According to the hospital, he was in a critical condition and could pass away at any moment. He had been in a care facility, but he was not admitted to the hospital until his condition had worsened to the point where it was too late.
When I realized that my father might not survive, I thought about what I could do for him. Since he was unable to eat, I decided that even if he couldn't listen to it himself, I would compose a song dedicated to him. That's how I created The Path I Walked with My Father.

    My musical journey began in middle school when I first strummed a guitar gifted by my parents. It was an initiation that sparked a passion, leading me to pick up the electric guitar during my high school years. At that time, the heavy metal wave was at its peak, and naturally, I found myself immersed in the genre, playing in a band. However, as my tastes evolved, I transitioned to blues. There was a hiatus of about 25 years in my mid-twenties when my guitar collected dust, but the strings called to me once more, and I revived my practice. Alongside the guitar, I can also play the blues harp, and I've taken up the bass out of necessity for certain pieces. Most recently, I've ventured into vocals on my new album, and while singing may not be my forte, it's a challenge I embrace with the same fervor I have for all my musical endeavors.
