SALON MUSIC

Salon Music is Yoshida Jin and Takenaka Hitomi.  For so long on Trattoria Records, the group now finds themselves on the post-Trattoria label Felicity.  The group apparently helped produce an early Flipper's Guitar song, "海に行くつもりじゃなかった but the exact connections to the group remain elusive.  Reportedly, Yoshida Jin actually "discovered" Lollipop Sonic, and helped them get a record deal, but only under one condition: They had to change their name to, you guessed it, Flipper's Guitar.
