Two More New Songs Live

SAWA finished her recent one-man live yesterday (on her birthday!) and she's put up the setlist on her new blog.

Two more new songs were debuted, Tomorrow, and Bubble Wrap.

She also did a recent blog on her demo working formula and a few pics of her "working" in the studio.



Will 2011 bring us any new SAWA before it departs? Who knows. I hope everyone enjoyed their halloween!

New SAWA Blog

No one's been showing myspace much love these days; it's like a deserted island.. SAWA included, so along with updating her mixi page, she's created a new blog on Excite! Has a nice new pic (that she also updated her twitter with.)

Tiny Little Update

Quiet in the SAWA camp..

SAWA has been doing live performances here and there, and she's played a new song yesterday called Tell A Lie. Along with one of the other songs mentioned before, あおぞら.

Also a few weeks ago she did her (sudden) final Sa-world Radio show.

Hopefully things will pick up soon, keep in touch!

New Songs Played at Latest Live

There are a few reports of SAWA's latest one man stating she performed three new songs titled:

ミスターブラウン (Mr. Brown)
ハッピーバースデー (Happy Birthday)
青空 (Aozora; Blue Sky)

Also in attendance were Aya Arvin homa (a frequent lyric collaborator on SAWA's albums), DJ AYUMi (recent producer, for Christmas Eve), Yukihiro Fukutomi (SAWA's Obi-Wan) and Emi Tawada.

From SAWA's Blog

There's also a string of new live dates for next month and another big one-man in November.

We'll keep ya posted.

RAM RIDER's Stars

Fresh from the RIDER's twittah:



I'm so in love.

"Title that doesn't stir up insane excitement but let's everyone know that it seems like there might be some progress"

Hullo~

No big news, sorry.. However SAWA tweeted a pic of some interest today of Hisashi Nawata working on a track at her place.

Haha, notice the SAWA glass.

So... something in the works..

Nawata recently did some production on Shibasaki Kou's CIRCLE CYCLE album with one of hte best tracks on it, パラレルワールド・リーディング (Parallel World Reading) and Sowelu's album last year with the song NEVER feat. VERBAL. Of course he also produced SAWA's last mini-album title track, あいにいくよ, so expecting good things!

Give it a listen

They seem to be pretty good friends and he's joined her for many lives to play keyboard as well.. Wonder if they'll have it finished for the next big one-man-live?

....

Also.. there's a post of SAWA-fan interest at the wonderful STEREO_NiGHT LJ community.. you might wanna check it out. You have to join, though!

Also2.. SAWA's started her myspace blog back up, check it out for some pics she took of her recent trip to Paris!

That is all for now!

New Cover Song for Compilation

SAWA has completed a new track, a Seiko Matsuda cover いちご畑でつかまえて (Ichigobatake de tsukamaete/Catcher in the Strawberry Field) for a compilation coming out in May.



You can hear a preview here or a rip here :)
