i-nichi is Tokyo-based singer and songwriter Seiko Nemoto. Seiko had previously come to the attention of UK audiences when her band Dai-Nichi supported The Chesterfields on tour in 2019, including a fantastic response at London's 100 Club, an experience Seiko could never have predicted when she started following The Chesterfields around the UK in the late 1980s when living in London. Seiko's unique take on songwriting, coupled with a love of Captain Beefheart, Gang of Four, Devo and early UK prog rock has now manifested itself in this wonderful limited edition 7 inch single! Seiko is joined on the record by multi-instrumentalist Philip Collings for three highly original songs, Mimiko, Richard Sinclair, and Dear Mr. David Shrigley. Produced and engineered by Ben Turner at Axe & Trap Studio in Wells, Somerset, whilst observed by Simon Barber (The Chesterfields). Limited to 500 copies.
