ABOUT HANABIE.
HANABIE. is a Tokyo-based all-girl rock band that has been making waves since 2015, when Yukina, Matsuri and Hettsu came together for a high school club activity. With the addition of Chika in May 2023, the band has evolved into a force to be reckoned with. Don’t be fooled by their cute, girlish image – they are a “Harajuku-Core” band with roots in metal, hardcore and Japanese idol culture. With a hard-hitting blend of powerful shouts, heavy riffs, and unique Japanese flair, they have captured fans at home and abroad. Their hit single ‘Pardon Me, I Have To Go Now’ has amassed over 9.4 million views on YouTube and 5.1 million views on TikTok.Within just six months after their major debut in July 2023 under Epic Records Japan, they have successfully completed a world tour with 45 performances across 17 countries. They have continued to perform internationally throughout 2024, and in August, they made history as the first Japanese women to perform on the main stage at Lollapalooza in Chicago, USA. With a rapidly growing international following, HANABIE. is actively expanding their presence and making a bold statement on the global stage. |
