Mari's 40th Anniversary Project

Hi, everyone. This is Mari Iijima here. Hope all is well with your daily lives. Thank you again for helping me out when my car "Reddy" broke down a couple of years ago. Your support really touched me. I am still with Reddy today and he is happy being on the road even though his condition isn't perfect. I try my best to continue living and creating my music continuously. I have a lot of inspiration and ambition yet I don't have any sponsors so it’s hard to make everything I want to do creatively come true. This is the 40th anniversary year from my debut album "Rosé". I am making an album now to release in the Summer and I have upcoming concerts in Tokyo in September. I want to work with good engineers, I want a new microphone etc to produce my music yet, it is hard to do those things all on my own so I'm starting this new fundraiser to have a better creative situation for my music and the future. 皆さん、いつも応援ありがとうございます。車修理の際はご協力本当にありがとうございました。全部を直せたわけではありませんが、おかげさまでレッディは、今も私と勇気を乗せて元気に走ってくれております。ありがとうございます。さて、今年の9月でデビュー40周年となります。色々と厳しい状況の中でも、自分のクリエイティブ環境をアップトゥデイトにしておきたいと願う自分がいます。良いエンジニアと仕事もしたいし新しいマイクも欲しい。願いは全部叶わなくても少しでも理想に近づきたい。一人がんばる私のサポートを皆さんにしていただき、皆さんと共に幸せなアニバーサリー・イヤーを迎えたいと思います。日々努力を惜しまず精進いたします。皆さま、お元気で。April 2, 2023
