Item Description
From Minyo Crusaders with Love. A folk song love letter to the world.
Their long-awaited new album after three years, featuring powerful guests from Japan and abroad!
Their new album, "From Japan with Love," their first in three years, has arrived. As the name suggests, this album is based on the band's "love" for folk music. It passionately revives the feelings of the people of Japan that have been passed down through generations in folk songs from all over the country, such as "Hokkai Bon Uta," "Hanagasa Ondo," "Shigesa Bushi," and "Iyo Manzai," by fusing Japanese folk music with beats from various countries such as salsa, cumbia, and Afrobeat in the Min-Kuru style. Furthermore, this album features guest artists for the first time. From Japan, Chitose Hajime and Saya Asakura are featured, and from Colombia, their close friend Frente Cumbiero is featured. The sound created by the synergy between them is the most expansive in the band's history, and it is a work that truly lives up to the reputation of Min-Kuru, who have been spreading Japanese folk music all over the world.
