His five-decade legacy continues to grow and attract new fans, and has been cited by an acclaimed list of artists, including Mac DeMarco, Cameron Winter, Ginger Root, Vampire Weekend, and Harry Styles. Shaped by mid-century American music, Hosono's work now reverberates back through a new generation of Western artists—a remarkable circular exchange.\u003cbr\u003eYours Sincerely, his 23rd studio album and first collection of new music in over seven years, finds Hosono ever-pushing his exploratory songcraft: “I am now 78 years old, but from here on, I feel a growing curiosity toward the unknown\u003cbr\u003emusic that my new self will create, while also embracing the music of my former self—as if I now carry two musical worlds within me.” Across arrangements that span tender psych-folk and bubbling avant pop, Hosono contemplates the concept of a maternal force that envelops the Earth, “humanity’s understanding of the unconditional love possessed by those who give us life,” he says. Songs tap into a collective current, engaging the “deeply buried instincts—maternal compassion and mercy, things we rarely engage with in our daily lives.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GHOSTLY INTERNATIONAL","offers":[{"title":"Indies Mothership Cream Vinyl","offer_id":53937621500231,"sku":"TRI-73596","price":31.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black Vinyl","offer_id":53937621532999,"sku":"TRI-73597","price":29.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":53937621565767,"sku":"TRI-73598","price":14.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/9779\/5655\/files\/Haruomi-Hosono-Yours-Sincerely.png?v=1779182216","url":"https:\/\/towerrecords.ie\/products\/haruomi-hosono-yours-sincerely","provider":"Tower Records Dublin Ireland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
