Shione Yukawa's highly anticipated new album, Blue Bird, her first in two years, will be released this winter.

Like her 2022 album, 10 Footprints, Blue Bird is entirely self-produced, with inspiration drawn from novels and tanka poems. The lyrics intricately weave themes of being born, living, and departing, set against a backdrop of her signature choral, religious, and traditional musical roots. These elements come together to create an original sound that unfolds into a cohesive, heartfelt narrative.

The album features arrangements by longtime collaborators Mahito Fujiwara and Yoshiki Sakurai, with string arrangements by Kumi Takahara. Together, they bring a deep understanding of Yukawa's artistic world, enhancing its depth and resonance.

A highlight of Blue Bird is Yukawa's first collaboration with her father, Tohben Yukawa, adding a deeply personal touch to the album. This collection of vibrant songs reflects Shione Yukawa's artistic journey and marks the culmination of her 20-year career since her debut.
