Yuya Matsushita's quiet songs from Fukuoka

A Japanese singer whose falsetto on "Bird" caught attention, with lyrics that lean into vulnerability.

For a good frame, try "Bird" from 2009 or "Futari" from his top songs. Both have that quiet, vulnerable quality he does well.

His 2009 song "Bird" brought him wider attention with its quiet arrangement and falsetto vocal. He's worked with both pianist Makoto Ozone and American songwriter Sufjan Stevens. Songs like "Futari" and "Donna Toki Mo" show his tendency toward introspective lyrics about solitude.

He started writing songs as a teenager in Fukuoka. After "Bird" in 2009, he released albums like "The Song of the Bird" in 2011 and "Songbook" in 2018. His band includes guitarist Makoto Minagawa, bassist Genki Kitahara, and drummer Tatsuya Yoshida.
