Nao Matsushita released her new album "FUN" in April for the first time in three years. The national tour "JA Bank presents Nao Matsushita Concert Tour 2022-FUN-" with the same title started from Tokyo's Katsushika Symphony Hills.
This stage started with Yunker's CM song "Shiny Blue", which is light and energetic. It seemed that Matsushita's switch was turned on. Next, JA Bank's CM song "Minna no Ashita". As I introduced, "a song that warmly supports me," the venue was wrapped in a peaceful mood. The audience is drawn to the familiar songs that flow from the TV.
This new album "FUN" enjoys music anyway! That is the concept. Matsushita on the piano and the members of the band are playing very happily on the stage that expresses it all over. The audience watching it will naturally be happy.
The highlight was "Breath ~ JUA la Africa ~" ("Earth Impressive Special Protect the Minashigo Elephant" theme song "Nao Matsushita Kenya Sensation Animal Language") Introducing episodes with children's elephants that I met in Africa and creating an image of the audience. By the way, I am moved by the magnificent songs that express the land, grasslands and nature of Africa.
Then, following the opening theme "Hikari-ray of light-" of "The Dawn of Gaia". As the third generation of the historic program of the 20th anniversary, he was the "guide" and told us about the episode of the interview on location. A song that expresses people who are particular about it, meet people who have a good heart, and express those people in a dignified manner. It's a song that makes you feel a firm belief.
Looking at the audience seats filled with people of all ages and genders, as the tour title "FUN" shows, it is filled with a pleasant atmosphere. Matsushita said, "I need a good time to share with you like this." It was two hours in a blink of an eye full of FUN (smiles).
The nationwide tour will go around Sapporo, Miyazaki, Kumamoto, Tokyo * and continue until July 10th at Shin Kabukiza in Osaka.
(* July 9th, Tokyo International Forum Hall C performance)
