Music producer Shinya Tada will hold a one-man live performance titled "Apple POP" Vol. 2 ~Gobousei~ on October 29th at Kenmin Hall, Kenmin Welfare Plaza (Aomori City).

Mr. Tada made his debut as a composer in 2007 (Heisei 19). Provides songs to idol groups such as "Arashi" and "AKB48". In 2009, he began his career as a singer-songwriter, and has released six albums and two singles.

Moved to Aomori/Hirosaki from Tokyo in November 2018. After meeting the dance and vocal unit "Ringo Musume", she felt that the four seasons of Aomori and the life of Hirosaki were easy to live in. Currently, he is involved in a wide range of activities in parallel with his work as a singer and songwriter, including producing sound for local idols, providing music, giving lectures, and serving as a radio personality.

The live title "Pentagram" is a reference to the 5th anniversary of immigration. Tada says, ``I felt a connection to the five-pointed star that you see when you cut an apple.My musical life has been full of changes every five years, so I hope I can take the next step as a singer.''

Looking back on his five years in Aomori, Tada says with a smile that the biggest change has been that he has become able to decipher a lot of the Tsugaru dialect, although not all of it. ``For five years, I lived in harmony with nature, such as snow, which humans can't control. I spent the coronavirus pandemic in Aomori, and what I experienced here was utilized in my melodies and lyrics, and I was able to grow as a music writer.''

In conjunction with the live performance, they will release their first new song in about 4 years, "Ainouta", on November 11th. ``Love is not something that can be clearly seen, but something that you have to find for yourself.I created it while keeping in mind the natural melody and universal words that I felt through life in Aomori,'' says Tada. A CD containing the same song will also be on sale at the live venue.

The one-man live, which will be performed by a band, will include songs played and sung by invited guests, as well as new songs and cover songs. ``I feel grateful for the five years in Aomori, and grateful for being able to carry out my music activities while being watched over.'' I want to convey this through my live performance while watching everyone's expressions,'' he said enthusiastically.
