Small Town Talk has released a truly magnificent cover of The Style Council's classic neo-acoustic gem, "Headstart for Happiness"!
This track serves as an advance digital single from the compilation *Neo-Acoustic for Café Après-midi*-a collection of newly recorded covers of neo-acoustic classics, themed around the "bliss of an afternoon coffee." The project features curation and song selection by Toru Hashimoto (SUBURBIA), artwork by Jiro Fujita (FJD), and mastering by Calm.
Small Town Talk is a supergroup within the Japanese alternative pop scene-a scene with its roots in the 'Shibuya-kei' movement-comprising Moa Ando (formerly of Pencils), Misato (of Classic Blue/Crispy Camera Club), and Hiroshi Yamashita (of Wack Wack Rhythm Band/Freedom Suite). Formed in 2026, the group has received support from Hideki Kaji, Gakuji 'CHABE' Matsuda, and Bryn Barklam (formerly of Mother Earth/The In Sound), and is set to release its first project in October 2026.
