EbisuSanada Naoki
Naoki Sanada, born in 1989, debuted as an enka singer in 2016.
His single “Ebisu” entered the Oricon Weekly Enka/Kayō Singles Ranking at number one, and in 2020 he won the Best New Artist Award at the 62nd Japan Record Awards.
With his distinctive husky voice and emotionally rich singing, he brings a fresh breeze to traditional enka.
Having debuted as a disciple of Ikuzo Yoshi, Sanada often performs songs specially written by his mentor.
He’s also multi-talented, appearing on programs related to his hobbies of baseball and horse racing, and he threw the ceremonial first pitch at Jingu Stadium in 2022.
In addition to his vocals, his idol-level good looks draw attention.
He’s a singer highly recommended for those just beginning to take an interest in enka.
Asian SeaYazawa Eikichi
The song “Asian Sea,” included on the 14th album Tokyo Night, is striking for its nostalgic atmosphere, characterized by a wistful ensemble and vocals.
While there are some high-tone parts, the overall key is low and the tempo is relaxed, making it approachable even for those who aren’t confident singers.
In karaoke, try to channel Eikichi Yazawa’s husky voice; it’s a great pick when you want to sing something cool and mature.
Echigo Dream FireworksIshihara Junko
Junko Ishihara is a highly skilled enka singer who is also known as an associate master of shigin (Japanese chanted poetry).
Since her debut in 1988, she has led Japan’s enka scene for many years.
Her 2003 release “Echigo Yume Hanabi” is a song inspired by the Nagaoka Festival in Niigata Prefecture.
Set on the day of the once-a-year festival, it portrays a love story carried by an elegant melody.
With Ishihara’s expressive vocals, the scene of a summer night—like a fleeting dream—leaves a deep impression on listeners.
It’s especially recommended for those who want to savor the atmosphere of summer at a relaxed pace or those who wish to experience deep emotion.
Echigo goze (blind female itinerant musicians from Echigo)Ishikawa Sayuri
Sayuri Ishikawa has been active since the 1970s and continues to energetically release new works even in the Reiwa era.
Her single Echigo Goze, released in October 2023, drew attention because the lyrics were written during his lifetime by Tadashi Kitajō, who passed away in 2021, specifically for Ishikawa.
Listening to Ishikawa’s respectful vocal delivery toward the goze, Kitajō’s lyrics, and Keisuke Hama’s somewhat wistful melody, you can almost picture the goze on their harsh journeys.
Honestly, it’s difficult to imitate Ishikawa’s singing, with its seamless shifts between head voice and chest voice, but there are no extremely strong kobushi inflections or vibrato, the vocal range is relatively narrow, and there are spots to breathe before the flowing melodic lines—so with patient practice, it becomes quite singable.
EndrollKamiyama Yagi
Singer-songwriter Yoh Kamiyama, who began his career as a Vocaloid producer under the name Ourin in 2014 and made his major-label debut in 2020.
His seventh digital-only single, “Endroll,” was selected as the ending theme for the TV anime BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War – The Separation.
Its cool melody over a hysteric ensemble will boost the energy at year-end and New Year parties.
The vocal range isn’t very wide, making it easy to sing, but the flow is fast, so be careful not to fall behind.
Ebizo Diamond!!shiritsu ebisu chūgaku
Shiritsu Ebisu Chugaku is a 10-member idol group formed mainly from talents belonging to Stardust Promotion, who made their debut as the junior group to Momoiro Clover Z.
Their indie debut single, “Ebizori Diamond!!,” was the group’s first original song and was used as the opening theme for the variety show “Shōchūkō Ikkan MomoeBi Gakuen.” With a rollercoaster-like song structure characteristic of Kenichi Maeyamada and a four-on-the-floor beat that creates a sense of speed, it feels perfectly suited as background music for a school sports day.
It’s a high-tension, up-tempo tune with comical lyrics and a catchy melody that sticks in your head.
