Details: Underground, free jazz, rock, folk, pop - an album of 15 tracks, all newly recorded, by Yumi Tamai (vocals, piano, guitar, melodica, etc.) and Daisuke Fuwa (bass, vocals, guitar, etc.), whose expressive intelligence and magic cannot be expressed in any genre. Yumi Tamai is a singer and actress. She is the vocalist for the band Shibusa Shirazu. Born in Tokyo in 1977, she completed the Higashikoganei Village School 2, an animation director training course organized by Hayao Miyazaki, while studying architecture at Tokyo University of the Arts. This led to her being selected for the role of Lin in the film Spirited Away. She gained recognition as a voice actress, and appeared in the film Xamudo: Lost Memories (as Ishu Kohi), directed by fellow school alumnus and animation director Masayuki Miyaji. She also co-wrote and composed the music for the screenplay (with Sosuke Yamamoto and Ken Kaizu) for the film Monshen (produced by Siglo MK), inspired by the seas of Amakusa. Furthermore, as an actress, she has participated in theater productions such as Cabaret in the Sky (directed by Kazumi Kushida at Matsumoto Performing Arts Center) and Southward (directed by Hideki Noda at NODAMAP at Tokyo Metropolitan Theatre).

In 2013, she was appointed guest vocalist for the Shibusa Shirazu Grand Orchestra's 'Tenmaku Shibusa Fune -Ryuu-tetsu MANDALA-' (Kanagawa Arts Theatre) (and has since become a member of Shibusa Shirazu), and began to gain recognition as a singer and singer-songwriter. Her comprehensive talents led to her being appointed as a main staff member for the art project 'Akasaki Wednesday Post Office' (2013-2016). In 2015, she released the album 'MOTHER SUN' (Fuwa Works & Chitei Records), produced by Shibusa Shirazu leader Daisuke Fuwa. She co-directed the film 'White Elephant' with filmmaker Hikaru Kanda.

He formed the free jazz band Shibusa Shirazu after working on the soundtrack for the underground creative group Discovery Society. Shibusa Shirazu also included sub-bands, such as the dance team Chichibu Shirazu, comprised of cabaret dancers, dark martial artists, and samba dancers. The band developed into a diverse band, encompassing jazz, rock, and dance music. In 1995, he released his first studio album, 'Be Cool.' In 1998, he embarked on a world tour (Germany, Norway, Czech Republic, Austria, South Korea, etc.). In 2001, he made his Fuji Rock Festival debut, receiving rave reviews.
