Wataru Sawabe’s new song from his solo project, Skirt, is the CM song for the beef bowl chain Sukiya’s new TV commercial “Beef Suki Nabe Set Meal ‘Winter Arithmetic’ Edition” titled “Fire wo Tomose”, which will be released on December 4th. It has been decided that it will be released, and the jacket photo has also been released.
In addition, ahead of its release, it has been decided that the full version of “Fire Light” will be aired for the first time on J-WAVE (81.3 FM)’s “GURU GURU!” on December 2nd. This is your chance to listen to the songs ahead of time, so please check it out.
“Light the Fire” is a song with a light guitar sound and a sad melody by Skirt, who calls himself the “Emperor of Autumn and Winter.” It expresses how eating Sukiya’s “Beef Suki Nabe” warms your heart in the winter. A song that gently fits into the commercial.

profile
An unhealthy pop band that has a somewhat dark yet refreshing songwriting and band ensemble that has earned a reputation among people of all professions, genders, and ages.
In 2006, Wataru Sawabe’s solo project began with a focus on recording through overdubbing. In 2010, he started his own label, Katuka Sounds, and started his activities in earnest with the release of his first album “S.O.S.”
In April 2021, he was in charge of the opening theme song “ODDTAXI” for the anime “Odd Taxi” in collaboration with PUNPEE. With his extensive knowledge of comedy, in September 2023 he served as a judge for the final round of the comedy award race “UNDER 25 OWARAI CHAMPIONSHIP” for those under 25 years old, and also wrote the theme song for the competition, “Expectations and Premonitions.” He is also involved in the production of numerous animation works, movies, drama soundtracks, and music. Also, due to his songwriting sense, he has provided songs to Takashi Fujii, Kaede (Negicco), Toko Miura, adieu (Moka Kamishiraishi), etc. Furthermore, as a multi-player, he has participated in live performances and recordings with Spitz, Makoto Kawamoto, and the Moon Riders, whom Sawabe himself respects, making him a wonderful singer-songwriter and band member that has attracted attention for his diverse talent and genre-regardless nature.
