A classic song that celebrates Niigata. The enduring spirit of our hometown passed down through song.

When you think of Niigata, you think of Koshihikari rice! But this time, I’d like to introduce some songs themed around Niigata.

We’ve gathered a variety: enka that sings of the particular loneliness of snowy regions, songs inspired by folk music, and funky tunes that convey Niigata’s greatness.

For those who live in Niigata or lived there as children, some of these tracks may bring back memories.

Each song showcases what makes Niigata wonderful, so be sure to listen while checking out the lyrics.
