Jpop Recommend #388 Ongaku no susume by Natsuko Nisshoku

音楽のすゝめ Ongaku no susume

日食 なつ子 Natsuko Nisshoku

Released in March 2021, this song is her 2nd single.  She is one of my favorite singers.  Even though her name is still yet to be known, I instantly liked her singing when I first heard her another song, "水流のロック, suiryuu no rock".  If you like her strong voice, please try listen to this song, too!
