Shigeru Izumiya appears in “Songs” for the first time in 12 years.

Debuted in 1971 as a folk singer, and the “Spring / Summer, Fall / Winter”, which was announced the following year, grabbed the hearts of young people of the same generation and made a long hit. For more than half a century, Izumiya, who has been singing with his own message in a singing voice that shakes his soul, has also gained popularity as an actor and talent.

Izumiya has been continuing for many years for support activities to affected areas nationwide. In 1993, after the Hokkaido Southwest Offshore Earthquake, he visited an area suffered from disasters, such as the Great Hanshin / Awaji Earthquake, the Great East Japan Earthquake, and continued to give an ale in songs.

Among them, the Great Hanshin -Awaji Earthquake was appalled by the catastrophe in the Kobe city center that visited for live broadcasting 10 days after the outbreak, and felt strongly that the victims would want to regain “normal life” and “entertainment” as soon as possible. 。 Seven months later, a free live event at Kobe and Meriken Park was realized.

In this “SONGS”, in Kobe in January, just 30 years after the earthquake, it adhered to Shigeru Izumiya. What is the word that Izumiya speaks while remembering those days?

In addition, Takuro Yoshida’s famous song “Image Poetry”, who has been singing in the stricken area, will be delivered from Kobe and Meriken Park.

In the studio, Izumiya, who is still 76 years old, is closer to the reasons for continuing to sing in Izumiya, who is still particular about live performances at a live house.

In the studio performance, in addition to the representative song “Spring / Summer, Fall / Winter”, the famous song “generation” will be unveiled for the first time.
