A must-hear selection of masterpieces tracing the path Every Little Thing has woven
Since their debut in 1996, Every Little Thing has left an indelible mark on Japan’s pop music scene.
After Mitsuru Igarashi’s departure, they restarted as a duo and further broadened their musical range.
From up-tempo dance numbers to songs centered on acoustic guitar and dramatic pieces colored by strings, that breadth is one of ELT’s strengths, isn’t it? Kaori Mochida’s expressive delivery has also evolved into a vocal style that delicately conveys emotional nuances, giving the group as a whole a deeper flavor distinct from their debut days.
In this article, we trace ELT’s journey through their music and present their allure with a selection that gets to the heart of ELT.
