Serene state of mind

On Jun. 6- New single "HEY!/ Gratitude"
This day is the final day of "Welcome to my room" tour at Okinawa; Chikuzen accompanies himself alone on whole stage.
'Gratitude' was written with Hironori Okano.
Although Okano hasn't made his debut formally yet, Chikuzen praises his talent and musical sense.
On Jun. 4, at Festival Hall in Osaka, Chikuzen and Okano performed this song together.
And Okano's 'lemonade'.
Okano performed with Chikuzen four times during this tour.

On Jun. 20- New album "Indigo" and DVD "FIVE BIT STORY III"
According to Chikuzen, the title "Indigo" is derived from a proverb meaning "A disciple sometimes outshines his master".
Due to the schedule of other musicians, Chikuzen's next tour with a band is going to start in next spring.

It's not release, but on Jun. 10 and 17, songs performed at Cross Your Fingers Vol.11 on May 4 are on air on Midnight Fingers II, Chikuzen's regular radio program on FM802.
