1: Famous Dog Jody 2: Blue Sky and Mantle 3: That Phrase 4: The Bottom of the Sea 5: Sanpopo 6: La La La 7: Under the Sun [Mini Album CD with Obi Strip Sample] ■ Japanese Band Modern Konya / Blue Sky and Mantle Released in 2004 / 2nd Mini Album Featuring a unique sound that mixes bossa nova, Latin, jazz, and Showa-era kayokyoku (popular songs), this album showcases the appealing, clear vocals of vocalist Maki Nagayama. ■ Album Information Artist: Modern Konya Release Date: December 8, 2004 Label: MOTEL BLEU The first track, "Famous Dog Jody," is known as the band's representative song, ranking high on the indie charts at the time. ■ Review This band is firmly centered around the vocals of Maki Nagayama, and the key is that they primarily convey through her singing. Nagayama sings with a slightly husky voice, full of life, and clearly demonstrates her individuality as a vocalist, including her emotional lyrics. The performance, on the other hand, is also dynamic, united with her, and the ensemble is outstanding, whether it's samba or jazz. The songwriting has a Showa-era kayokyoku-like melody that is easy to relate to, and it suggests that they not only pursue enjoyment but also properly embrace spirit and entertainment. They can be considered an outstanding presence among similar bands in recent years. ■ Modern Konya A 7-member Japanese band. The large ensemble consists of vocals, guitar, bass, piano, drums, a horn section, violin, and percussion, with a maximum of 11 members at one time. ■ Thank you for your interest in the product.
