Tokyograph News · 01-26-2009, 05:30 AM

New duo The Generous will see their first official single used as the theme song for the movie "Tsurikichi Sanpei," directed by Yojiro Takita ("Okuribito").

The Generous consists of vocalist Yoko and guitarist Katsumi Ohnishi. Because Yoko is the daughter of singer Eikichi Yazawa, the group received heavy attention when it was first announced last September. They released a mini-album in October, and Takita was apparently impressed after hearing it. The result was a ballad titled "Heart," which will be released as a single on March 11.

"Tsurikichi Sanpei" is based on a well-known fishing manga by Takao Yaguchi and stars Kenta Suga, Tsunehiko Watase, Takashi Tsukamoto, and Yu Kashii. It is scheduled to open on March 20.
