Still waiting to see the album cover but that’s beside the point as we finally have a release date for Toru Yonaha’s much-anticipated 3rd solo album: 12/19/07. Titled ‘Utage’ (Party), the album will feature collaborations with artists like Masamune Kusano (from the J-rock band Spitz), Kyogo Kawaguchi (J-pop), Naomi Tamura (J-pop), Kiyosaku (of the punk band Mongol800) Shakari (J-pop), Yasukatsu Oshima (Yaeyama utasaa) and Misako Koja (utasaa) among others. Toru’s last solo album was 2003’s “Shamichiriti.”
“Utage” is available for pre-order at cdjapan.co.jp.
