Moto Fukushima Releases Jaw-Dropping Solo Album, “Songs Belong To The Night”
House of Waters bassist Moto Fukushima has just returned with his second solo album, entitled Songs Belong to the Night. The 12-song collection showcases his prowess and musicality on the six-string bass by making it the focus. In fact, it’s the only thing on the album.
“For this album, I composed pieces for a six-string bass as a solo instrument,” he shared on Facebook. “That’s a bit different from the regular bass role in the ensemble – but this instrument has a unique tone and performance approach which is distinct from a guitar or cello.”
If you’re unfamiliar with Fukushima’s playing, then buckle up. His jaw-dropping technical capabilities are only used in service of the music. Check out his video for the mesmerizing song “Butterfly”:
Songs Belong To The Night is available now on digital platforms including iTunes, Amazon MP3, and more.
