YUI、5月にバンドで活動再開　金髪ショートで再出発！
YUI will restart her activities as a band in May! She sets off again with a new short blonde cut!

Original Source: http://www.oricon.co.jp/news/music/2023263/full/

年大みそかの歌番組出演をもって活動休止したシンガー・ソングライターのYUI（26）が、ロックバンド「FLOWER FLOWER」（フラワーフラワー）として活動を再開することが2日、わかった。ロングヘアをバッサリ切った金髪ショートヘアのYUIがボーカルを務める同バンドは、5月4日に東京・新木場STUDIO COASTで行われるロックフェス『Japan Jam 2013』で初お披露目される。
After going on hiatus after a performance on a music TV show last New Year’s Eve, we found out on the 2nd that singer songwriter YUI (26) would restart her activities in the rock band “FLOWER FLOWER.” Drastically cutting her long hair off, the now short haired blonde YUI, who is the main vocalist in the above mentioned band, will make the first official debut at the rock fest “Japan Jam 2013,” which will take place on May 4th in Tokyo – Shin-Kiba STUDIO COAST.

活動休止前に「新たに挑戦したいことが見つかった」「“YUI”としての復帰は考えていない」と話していたYUIが、バンドで再出発する。自身が敬愛するミュージシャンに声をかけ、バンドを結成。今年に入ってからスタジオセッションを開始し、先月から全国数ヶ所でシークレットライブを行って準備を進めてきたYUIは「このメンバーで音を出したら音楽を純粋に楽しめると思った。それぞれのアイデアやプレイから新たな閃きや音楽の可能性が自然と広がってきている」と手応え十分の様子だ。
YUI, who has said things like “I’ve found something new that I’d like to challenge,” and “I’m not thinking of making a comeback as ‘YUI’,” before her hiatus, is starting off again as a band. By calling out to the musicians that she herself respects and loves, the band was formed. From the start of this year, they started doing studio sessions and from last month, they started playing secret lives in various places across the country, and as she is steadily preparing (for their debut), YUI said “With these members, once we produce a sound together, I thought that I could genuinely enjoy music this way. With our different ideas and play styles, the potential of our insight and music just naturally expands.” It seems like the results are extremely satisfying.

バンド名は「気どってなくて自然な名前にしたかった。かっこいい名前はいくらでもあったかもしれないけど、あえて肩の力が抜けている、自然と入り込んでくる名前にしたかった。パワフルでおもしろい発想を自由に表現したい」という気持ちを込めて命名したという。
For the band name, she put in all her feelings of, “I wanted to pick a name that wasn’t flashy, but was natural. There were probably a lot of cool names that I could’ve picked, but purposely, instead of doing that, I wanted to pick a name that seemed effortless and relaxing, and had a natural feeling injected into it. I want to express powerful and interesting ideas freely.” and thus named the band what it is.

同バンドは、5月4日の『Japan Jam』出演を皮切りに、同26日に東京・新木場の若洲公園で行われる『TOKYO METROPOLITAN ROCK FESTIVAL 2013』に出演することも決まっている。楽曲のリリースは現時点では未定。3日深夜0時に公式サイト（flowerflower-net.jp）が開設された。
Starting with the performance on May 4th, the band is also scheduled to perform at “TOKYO METROPOLITAN ROCK FESTIVAL 2013″ which will be held on the 26th in Tokyo at Shin-Kiba’s Wakasu Park. As of now there is no scheduled release for any songs. At midnight on the 3rd, their official site (flowerflower-net.jp) was established.

YUI、金髪ショートヘア＆新バンドで活動再開へ！　「音楽を純粋に楽しめると思った」
YUI, short blonde hair & headed towards restarting her musical activities with a band! “I thought that I could genuinely enjoy music.”

昨年末をもって活動休止していたシンガーソングライターのYUIが、「FLOWER FLOWER（フラワーフラワー）」というバンドで活動を再開することが明らかとなった。
It has been made clear that singer/songwriter, YUI, who put her musical activities on hiatus at the end of last year, will restart her activities under the band called “FLOWER FLOWER.”

昨年11月に突然、活動休止を発表してファンを驚かせたYUI。その後にGyaO!で公開した動画「MESSAGE from YUI」内で、休止理由について「自分の心が壊れてしまった姿を見せたくなかった」「心が折れちゃったというか、歌が歌えないくらいになっちゃった」などと赤裸々に明かしたことでも大きな話題となったが、活動休止からわずか数日後の今年1月にはバンドのメンバーを率いて関西地方のライブハウスに飛び入り出演し、ロングの黒髪をバッサリと切ったショートヘア姿を披露したことが一部報道により明らかとなり、再びファンを驚かせていた。
In November of last year, YUI shocked her fans by suddenly announcing that she was putting her musical activities on hold. After that, in the video that was released on GyaO! “MESSAGE from YUI,” she revealed frankly that the reason for her hiatus was that “I didn’t want to show people a broken spirited me,” “My spirit was broken, so to speak, and I ended up at the point where I couldn’t even sing anymore,” and it became a huge topic of discussion. However, only a few days after her hiatus in January of this year, she lead her band members to the Kansai region and did some last minute performances in the live houses there. The new short-haired appearance that she showed off after drastically cutting off her long black hair became widely known through certain parts of the news, surprising her fans once again.

今回、そのバンドで活動を再開するという。5月4日に東京・新木場Studio coastで行われるライブイベント「Japan Jam」へ出演し、ファンの前で初お披露目されることになった。さらに5月26日に東京・新木場の若洲公園で行われる野外フェス「TOKYO METROPOLITAN ROCK FESTIVAL 2013」への出演も決定している。いずれもYUI名義ではなく、あくまでもこのバンドとしての出演となるようだ。
This time, she is going to restart her activities with that band. They will be performing at the live event “Japan Jam” which will take place on May 4th in Tokyo at Shin-Kiba Studio Coast, and it will be their first official debut in front of fans. Additionally, they are also scheduled to perform at the outdoor fest “TOKYO METROPOLITAN ROCK FESTIVAL 2013″ which will be held on May 26th in Tokyo at Shin-Kiba’s Wakasu Park. It seems that at both these venues she will be performing, not under the name “YUI,” but 100% under this band.

同バンドは、YUIがリスペクトするミュージシャンたちに声をかけて結成したもので、今年に入りスタジオセッションを行い、ライブの準備をしていたという。「このメンバーで音を出したら音楽を純粋に楽しめると思った。それぞれのアイディアやプレイから新たな閃きや、音楽の可能性が自然と広がってきている」と、可能性を感じながら活動に意気込んでいる様子をうかがわせたYUI。また、FLOWER FLOWERというバンド名については、「気取ってなくて自然な名前にしたいと思いつけた。かっこいい名前はいくらでもあったかもしれないが、あえて肩の力が抜けている、自然と入り込んでくる名前にしたかった。パワフルでおもしろい発想を自由に表現したいという気持ちを込めた」とコメントしている。
The band was formed by YUI calling out to the musicians that she respects, and at the beginning of this year they carried out studio sessions and prepared for their live performances. “With these members, once we produce a sound together, I thought that I could genuinely enjoy music this way. With our different ideas and play styles, the potential of our insight and music just naturally expands,” stated YUI, who seemed to be in a very excited state about their activities, as she could feel the potential of the band. Also, concerning the band name, FLOWER FLOWER, she commented that, “I wanted to pick a name that wasn’t flashy, but was natural. There were probably a lot of cool names that I could’ve picked, but purposely, instead of doing that, I wanted to pick a name that seemed effortless and relaxing, and had a natural feeling injected into it. I included all my feelings of wanting to express powerful and interesting ideas freely into the name.”

YUI名義の楽曲が披露されるかどうかは不明だが、活動休止を経て、金髪ショートヘア姿にイメチェンしたYUIが心機一転、新たなバンドでどのようなパフォーマンスを見せるのか、注目される。
Whether or not she will perform songs that are under the “YUI” name is still unknown, but her hiatus has passed, and YUI, who went through an image change with her short blonde hair, has turned over a new leaf, and people are focusing on what kind of performance she will show with her new band.

なお、楽曲のリリースについては現状未定とのことだ。
Also, there is no scheduled release for any songs at this time.

YUIがバンド：FLOWER FLOWERで活動再開「パワフルでおもしろい発想を自由に表現したい」
YUI will restart activities with band: FLOWER FLOWER “I want to express powerful and interesting ideas freely.”

2012年末をもって活動休止していたシンガーソングライターのYUIが、FLOWER FLOWER（フラワーフラワー）なるバンドで活動を再開する。これは自身がリスペクトするミュージシャンたちに声をかけて結成した生粋のバンドであり、2013年に入ってからスタジオセッションを始動、着々とライブの準備を整えていたもの。
Singer/songwriter YUI, who went on hiatus at the end of 2012, is restarting her musical activities as the band FLOWER FLOWER. This is a naturally formed band that started off with her calling out to the musicians that she herself respects, and from the beginning of 2013, they started studio sessions and steadily arranged all the preparations for their live performances.

「このメンバーで音を出したら音楽を純粋に楽しめると思った。それぞれのアイディアやプレイから新たな閃きや、音楽の可能性が自然と広がってきている」――YUI
“With these members, once we produce a sound together, I thought that I could genuinely enjoy music this way. With our different ideas and play styles, the potential of our insight and music just naturally expands.” –YUI

公開されたライブ写真を見る限り、ボーイッシュな金髪姿となったYUIがボーカル＆ギターを務めるFLOWER FLOWERが、ベース、ドラム、キーボードという編成のバンドであることがわかる。写真のYUIはアコースティックギターを弾いているが、その背後にはフェンダー製ジャガーかジャズマスターを思わせるギターとVOXのアンプがセットされていることからも、ロックなサウンドが期待できそうだ。
Based on the live pictures that were released to the public, the band FLOWER FLOWER, where YUI, now with a boyish blonde hairstyle, is in charge of vocals and guitar, is also composed of a bassist, a drummer and a keyboardist. In the pictures, YUI is playing an acoustic guitar, but from the fact that what is thought to be a Fender Jaguar or Jazzmaster, as well as a VOX amp are set up behind her, it seems that we can anticipate a rock type of sound as well.

なお、3月にはすでに全国の数ヶ所でシークレットライブを行なっていたとのこと。鍵盤奏者のキーボードには、“FLOWER FLOWER”というバンド名が記されたロゴステッカーが貼られていることも確認できる。
Furthermore, as of March, they have already performed secret lives in various places around the country. We are also able to confirm that on the keyboard that the band’s keyboardist plays, there is a logo sticker that has the band name “FLOWER FLOWER” written on it.
