Melodic Stormsutoreitenaa
Alternative rock band Straightener will make their first appearance at Kyoto Daikassen.
They have an image of being a very stylish and cool band.
Their song “Melodic Storm” is one of their signature tracks and is often played at the end of their shows.
We’ll probably get to hear it at this year’s Daikassen, too.
comic bandyonseikyu
We are Su-xing-cyu, Japan’s most tear-jerking comic band.
We perform in a quirky style—briefs and happi coats—and while we get laughs with all kinds of gags, our lyrics carry messages that reach the heart and captivate listeners.
You won’t want to take your eyes off us to see how we’ll make you cry and laugh at this year’s Daisakusen.
Flash feat. 10-FEETToukyou Sukapara Daisu Ookesutora
Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra, a band that represents Japanese ska.
Among their many collaborative tracks with various artists, this song Senko (Flash) is a collaboration with 10-FEET, the organizers of Kyoto Daisakusen.
It’s a track where Skapara’s ska elements and 10-FEET’s fiery energy blend perfectly.
I’m really looking forward to the chance to see a collaboration live.
water lily blossomShonan no Kaze
Shonan no Kaze, probably the most famous reggae group in Japan, will be performing at Kyoto Daisakusen again this year.
Although they’re a reggae group, they actively appear at rock festivals and have performed at Daisakusen multiple times in the past.
At their live shows, the reggae-style tradition of everyone twirling their towels is sure to feel fresh and fun for rock kids, no doubt about it.
FIST AND FIREFIRE BALL with HOME GROWN
FIRE BALL, leaders of Japan’s dancehall reggae scene, will appear at Oogesa Sakusen with the reggae band HOME GROWN as their backing band.
FIRE BALL has close ties with 10-FEET and also took part in the collaboration album “6-feat 2.” They’ve even performed this song live together with 10-FEET.
Since Oogesa Sakusen is known for frequent artist collaborations, there’s a good chance we’ll see some kind of collab on the day as well.
