Yoko Matsuda Mini Album "Kaze no Toorimichi"

A mini-album titled after "Kaze no Toorimichi" (Path of the Wind), a song that has been well-received at live performances!

Produced by ukulele and guitar player Seiji Omotani—also known as the other half of "OMO YOKO"—the album features diverse arrangements of original songs.

While retaining the warmth of ukulele-accompanied vocals, it incorporates collaborations with various instruments, infusing the colors of 60s-70s American folk, rock, and pop.

Transcending the typical Hawaiian image associated with the ukulele, the album features gentle vocals and the instrument's natural, organic texture, creating a sound that comfortably colors your daily life.
