Meet The Sun: Noz Reveals Secrets Behind Our New Single
“I couldn’t speak, but I could play.”“演奏はできる。だけど話せない、だからなんだ、いいんだ、演奏できるから、と開き直った。” – Nozomi Omote Tom writes: Meet the Sun, our new single arriving 25 January, is about life-long adventures and challenges.

Clarinet recording DONE!
Hello! This is Noz. First time to write here. My husband is luckily a professional clarinettist and Shugorei asked him to play and record his sound for our first album. Some bits sounded hard. So thank you to amazing Nick to do it. Today was the second part of clarinet and bass clarinet recording at…

Practice Sessions (Part 2)
Here is some more (virtual) rehearsal footage. Note that these items are little sneak peeks of our 2020 upcoming album!
