RADWIMPS
Formed in 2001, much acclaimed Japanese rock band Radwimps made their major label debut in 2005. Soon after, they garnered a broad fan base, with the younger generation at the core. The band has released ten studio albums thus far. The band's creation of music for Makoto Shinkai’s record-breaking animated feature films "Your Name." (2016), "Weathering with You" (2019) and “Suzume” (2022) led to recognitions at the Japanese Academy Award for Best Original Score.
In Nov. 2021, the band released their latest studio album “FOREVER DAZE” and went on the road for a nationwide Japanese tour to support the album. “FOREVER DAZE” was written and recorded throughout the pandemic and speaks to the musical challenges the guys faced, their hopes moving forward and features a diverse group of collaborators and experimental elements.
Their musical activities go far beyond Japan, including touring extensively around the world. The band embarked on their biggest world tour in 2023, first international tour in 5 years, with all SOLD OUT North America, Europe, Asia and Australia dates. Due to further demand from the fans, the band went out on the road once again in 2024 to the first ever LATAM tour and another Asia tour for “The way you yawn, and the outcry of Peace.”
