Sea breeze blowing on a stone tower
The language of snowflake flower
The water from the fall is like a shower
Going to the blue cave gives you power
Illuminated terraced rice paddies
The laddies worked as island golf course caddies
Let's go to the aquarium with laddies
Squid fishermen are good-looking daddies
When I was young
I didn't like the hick town
It was real let me down
But the city is like a clown
Always make me frown
Now I like this place
Coz we can see into space
And maybe there is no rat race
Above all,I can walk my own pace
At the time I was rejecting everything
So I couldn’t even notice the scenery to love
The wind embraces me and forgive me for everything
The earth catches my heart like a glove
Totoro Rock can be seen over the trench
8 kilometers down the coast I dropped a wrench
He plays the guitar on the long long bench
The tall trees ruin look like Stonehenge
When I was young
I didn't like the hick town
It was real let me down
But the city is like a clown
Always make me frown
Now I like this place
Coz we can see into space
And maybe there is no rat race
Above all,I can walk my own pace
“Noto wa yasashiya tutimademo”
I’m not sad or in pain, but the tears flow
“Noto wa yasashiya tutimademo”
Old signs point the way to NOTO’s show
“Noto wa yasashiya tutimademo”
This place is the paradise filled with love
“Noto wa yasashiya tutimademo”
Gods and people coexist through nature and love
At the time I was rejecting everything
So I couldn’t even notice the scenery to love
The wind embraces me and forgive me for everything
The earth catches my heart like a glove
“Noto wa yasashiya tutimademo”
I’m not sad or in pain, but the tears flow
“Noto wa yasashiya tutimademo”
Old signs point the way to NOTO’s show
“Noto wa yasashiya tutimademo”
This place is the paradise filled with love
“Noto wa yasashiya tutimademo”
Gods and people coexist through nature and love

The Road Leading to Noto
TSUNDAMAN
The music is lyrical and emotional.
With strings and a keyboard, a guitar and a base, then the vocal will create a soft and lyrical melody endlessly.
When I was a teenager, I hated my hometown for how boring it was. In my eyes, it had nothing but nature. I even felt embarrassed living in such a rural place and ignored everything I saw in my hometown. That is why I failed to realize the beauty hidden within. I wished to leave this town and move to the city as soon as I could.
Now that I am an adult, when I reminisce about my past, I notice how kind and embracing my hometown, Noto, was. It makes me remember how warm and nostalgic it makes me feel, and sometimes it gives me the power and toughness I need to push through. The ordinary yet majestic scenery of Noto reminds me of something I missed or lost and gently speaks to my heart.

I was born in the Noto Peninsula, and currently live in the Hokuriku region. The 2024 Noto Earthquake left a huge scar in my hometown, which led me to start my singing career in the hope of cheering Noto with my music and letting people know the beauty of Noto. Inspired by '60s psychedelic music and 90s UK rock & melodic hardcore, I will create a lyrical and emotional worldview.
