藤永 美欧 Miou Fujinaga
MEOW
(Holy great Blues Singing Batman, What next?)….
No, not Cat Woman–It’s Lovely Japanese Songstress Fujinaga Miou (pronounced: Mee Yoh)
YYC (& co.) had a chance to listen to some of her songs while in Roppongi, Tokyo (May).
While I can’t profess to be a connoisseur, Ms. Fujinaga’s soulful renditions of traditional Japanese music crafted with the contemporary was impressive. Miou makes the traditional things NEW with her own spin. She has a blue-sy, melodic voice that captures the emotions and truly is worth your listen.
It is a creative way for we ‘gaijin’ (foreigners) to understand Japan more and for ‘nihongin’ (Japanese) to reacquaint themselves with what a rich culture exists to be re-explored.
Last year, she performed at the Japanese Film Festival celebrated in Florence, Italy. Firenze 2009.
She was recently touring in St. Maarten, sharing her original music beginning 29 June.
