［Description］
Legendary singer-songwriter Sachiko Kanenobu returns with the reimagined album, Fork In The Road, produced by Makoto Kubota, now available on vinyl!
Sachiko Kanenobu, a pioneering female singer-songwriter from Japan, known even abroad as the "Japanese first singer-songwriter" unveils the hidden gem of an album, Fork In The Road, recorded in a private studio in Izu like a demo tape in the summer of 1998. This album has been given a bold reproduction under the production of Makoto Kubota, with support from Ito Daichi, ASA-CHANG, and members of GEOMETRY OF NOW. The album has been remastered and remixed to a degree beyond imagination.
The album primarily features songs written during the 1980s and onward, after Sachiko Kanenobu's significant contribution to the music scene with the historic masterpiece "Misora" in 1972. The catalyst for her return to songwriting was the persuasion from her husband, Paul Williams, a prominent writer after he was deeply impressed upon hearing "Misora." Through the '80s and '90s, Sachiko navigated through a divorce and continued performing with a rock band. Around the end of the 20th century, she reunited with her musically from her teenage years, Yuki Matsuda, for a simple recording at a friend's house in Izu. Fast forward a quarter-century and much of the original work has been added to and remade through the idea of her old friend, Makoto Kubota.
The album boasts contributions from musicians such as Ito Daichi, Asa Chang, and members of GEOMETRY OF NOW, creating a time machine-like journey where '60s folk meet the '80s and travel into the 21st century. Additionally, one of her tracks is set to be featured in a major film soon.
Here are the details of her upcoming live performances:
