Shiina Ringo(椎名林檎) to sing theme song for NHK morning drama Carnation( カーネーション)


Singer Shiina Ringo(椎名林檎) will be in charge of the theme song for “Carnation( カーネーション)”, NHK’s next morning drama series (Asadora). This will be her first new solo release in roughly two and a half years, since her 4th album “Sanmon Gossip(三文ゴシップ)” in 2009.

First announced in March, “Carnation( カーネーション)” stars actress Ono Machiko(尾野真千子) as a fashion designer, modeled after real-life designer Koshino Ayako. The series is scheduled to run from October 3 to March 31 in the usual weekday 8:00am time slot. The show’s cast also includes Kobayashi Kaoru(小林薫), Aso Yumi(麻生祐未), and Kuriyama Chiaki(栗山千明).

Shiina’s theme song will be titled “Carnation( カーネーション)” as well. She said she has dreamed of providing an Asadora theme song for a long time, so she eagerly wrote two different songs after receiving the offer. “Carnation” is planned for release as a CD single this fall under EMI Music Japan.
