Konishi on piano? Funny...

Is he colaborating on songwriting also?

They do mainly covers, selected and arranged by him. This album does contain one song he wrote, "Tokyo no machi ni ..." (the videoclip), although that's also a cover as it previously appeared on "uta to Guitar. Piano. kotoba." sung by MIZUNO Mari.

MAEZONO Group is quite good stuff, very mellow though!
