東京のライヴハウスを中心に活動するシンガー・ソングライター、石指拓朗。作詞／作曲から録音、ミックスまでを手掛けた本作には、フィンガー・ピッキングの見事な演奏や、飄々とした歌声、そして、日常の風景を切りとったウィットに富んだ歌詞がたっぷり味わえる。サウンドだけではなく、語り口から空気感まで60年代の和製フォークの精神を受け継いで現代に甦らせた、キャラメルみたいに甘く懐かしい歌だ。

Takuro Ishizashi “Midorimachi”
Takuro Ishizashi is a singer song-writer who performs mainly in music venues around Tokyo. From writing the songs and lyrics to the recording and mixing, Takuro took everything in his own hands on this latest release, “Midorimachi.” You can enjoy the sounds of outstanding finger picking, laid-back vocals and witty lyrics about fragments of everyday life. Takuro’s modern interpretation of 60’s Japanese folk is seen inherited in everything from the sound, storytelling to ambience, and the songs are as sweet and nostalgic as old-timey caramel.
