Especia "Carta"

Osaka 80's style idol group Especia has a brand new album coming this month! Included are songs written by Fujii Naoyuki (ex-Checkers), Rillsoul, Schtein & Longer, PellyColo, with the rest mainly written by Hi-Fi City.

The album is being released in three different editions. The first limited edition comes with a 90-minute DVD of the show held on May 31, 2015 at Umeda Club Quattro in Osaka. The second comes with a bonus CD of remixes and instrumentals. There's also a regular edition of just the main CD.

This comes with a bit of drama, as three of the current 5 members will quit the group at the end of February, because of a move from Osaka to Tokyo. So this album is the last release to feature the current line-up. The members who will be leaving are Sannomiya Chika, Mise Chihiro and Wakita Monari. Tominaga Haruka and Mori Erika will remain.
