The pop band Shinanaide, which claims to “lightly sing about impermanence” with vocalist/keyboardist Kamegai Ayako and drummer Kawamura, and is known for its literary lyrics and rich musicality, has released the music video for “Rakuda,” which was released digitally on August 7, on YouTube. This song is available in advance from their mini-album “August’s Gunshot,” which will be released digitally on September 4.
The music video was directed by Yoshida Harerama, and the world of the song, which sings about a romantic but wrong love, in which two fallen people ride camels through the desert, is expressed through a video that moves between two worlds: a composite desert world and a real-life scene. In addition, the cover photo of the mini-album “Juusei Gatsu no Gunsei”, which features an illustration by Izumi Kanae, who is close friends with Pop Shinanaide, was also released.
In addition, to coincide with the release of the mini-album, the band will hold a three-show national tour called “24 Hour Yankee People.” The tour will kick off on Monday, October 14th (national holiday) at Shangri-la in Shimokitazawa, Tokyo, and will be held at three venues in Tokyo, Nagoya, and Osaka.
Currently, the second advance sale of tickets for the solo tour is being accepted on the website until 23:59 on Sunday, August 18th.

■Profile
Don’t pop
Formed in 2015, the band features vocalist and keyboardist Kamegai Ayako and drummer Kawamura in a light-hearted pop band that sings about the impermanence of things.
Kawamura’s lyrics are somewhat lonely but positive, and Kamegai’s expressive and distinctive vocals make for a minimalist yet complete musical composition. The music video is based on their unique musical philosophy, and their live performances, which recreate the band’s worldview with their strong expressiveness, are a hot topic.
They will release their second major full album “DOKI” in February 2024. Their first national solo tour “Kodo wo Kikasete” ended with a sold-out final performance at LIQUIDROOM in Ebisu, Tokyo.
