This is the 2nd album of Sunny Kubota & Old Lucky Boys, band led by Kubota Shingo who once was the frontman of late 70's new wave band 8 1/2. The band has 10 members including guitarist Muramatsu Kunio (ex-Sugar Babe), keyboardist Kotaki Mitsuru (ex-Cinema), bassist Yajima Chikara (ex-8 1/2), chorist Itō Eriko (who has sung chorus in Pizzicato Five) and "mascot boy" Sasha (once a roadie for bands such as Pizzicato Five, Boredoms and Godiego), just to name a few. Check out the clip below, directed by Tezka Macoto.
Also, just recently, a 7" of catchy tunes "Bubblegum Lovers" and "Adam to Eve no kaori" (from previous album "What's Your Dream?" (2015, Amazon, CDJapan)) was released on label Turtle Snail. It's available at Jet Set. Find details below.
