WILDTroye Sivan

Troye Sivan is a young singer-songwriter from South Africa.

He’s highly regarded by major artists like Taylor Swift and is an artist to watch right now.

VIDEOTAPEMUSIC, a music and video creator, will perform at Fuji Rock in an unusual lineup as a collaboration with the band cero.

VIDEOTAPEMUSIC has previously worked with cero—such as directing their music videos—so they’ve had connections in the past, but this time it’s a musical collaboration, and it’s exciting to imagine what kind of stage they’ll deliver.

By the way, the MV for cero’s “Yellow Magus” that we mentioned was directed by VIDEOTAPEMUSIC.

THANXWANIMA

WANIMA- THANX(OFFICIAL VIDEO)
THANXWANIMA

Since their debut on PIZZA OF DEATH, WANIMA have steadily grown in popularity and are now unstoppable.

With “one chance” as their motto, their appeal lies in the wide range from cheeky, sex-themed songs to genuinely “good songs” like 1106 and this track, as well as the distinct personalities of the three members.

Their live shows are undeniably fun, so don’t miss them.

Jesus, EtcWilco

Wilco – Jesus, Etc (clip)
Jesus, EtcWilco

Wilco is an American rock band, and this year marks their 22nd year of activity.

Although they’re a rock band, their songs have a very calm atmosphere.

I think their music would fit the vibe of Fuji Rock.

The lyrics of this song are somewhat abstract, which is why there seem to be various interpretations.
