Singer-songwriter Emi Nakamura

It has been decided that he has written the official song “MICHIKUSA” for his hometown Atsugi city promotion, and will release it as a digital single on January 20, 2025 (Monday), the anniversary of his major debut.

This song was produced at the request of Emi Nakamura, who was originally from Atsugi and still lives there, when producing a PR video for Atsugi City. It is a hip-hop-style song that depicts her daily life in Atsugi, where she spent her childhood, with realistic yet emotional lyrics and a relaxing and comfortable flow with a unique airy feel.

The jacket photo uses Emi Nakamura’s childhood photo.

The official Atsugi City Promotion video that uses this song was also released today, so be sure to check it out.

It has also been announced that a one-man live will be held at Atsugi City Cultural Center on Saturday, September 6, 2025, so please look forward to further updates.

[Comment from Emi Nakamura]

If I lived somewhere else, I’m sure the music and lyrics I would create would be completely different. I believe that the music that has been created because I have lived in Atsugi has become my most unique personality.

As an adult, I realized that being exposed to flowers, insects, and the changes in nature that I took for granted on my way to and from school and playing with friends every day enriched my sensibilities more than I ever imagined. Ta. I feel that living in a place surrounded by nature like Atsugi allows me to relax both mentally and physically and to do my best at work.

I wonder if today’s children, in places like Atsugi where there is so much nature, can roam the streets, see and touch many different things, sometimes fail, and decades later realize that they are treasures. This is a song I thought I might have.

I hope that not only people like me who have lived in Atsugi for a long time, but also people who live in other places, can take a step back and get a feel of what Atsugi is like. I hope I can convey to everyone that Atsugi has the potential to achieve what they want to do.

One-man LIVE will be held in local Atsugi city!
