Description
In Summer of 2019, Summer Sonic had to bring down the curtain once after the great success of the festival with the headliners – B’z, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS & THE CHAINSMOKERS and 300,000 enthusiastic fans. And it is finally returning for first time in 3 years. A baton has been passed to Summer Sonic from last year’s Supersonic which we had to overcome countless difficulties making it happen.
Already with the 1st announcement, we’ve managed to put togather these globally top class acts. POST MALONE, the american star beyond the concept of musical genres and even produced his own festival. THE 1975, the British gem, the top runner of the worldwide music scene . ONE OK ROCK, the Japanese rock band shining in the global music scenes and coming back to Summer Sonic for the first time since 2013. MÅNESKIN, the hottest rock band from Italy who have been offered a tour from THE ROLLING STONES. MEGAN THEE STALLION, the queen of the world Rap and a big fan of Japanese anime …and so on! We will soon anounce many more from Japan and other Asian countries!
People in the overseas music industry ask me how long Japan is going to shut the border to the internationl travelers while many artists from Japan are able to go out of the country for tours without any quarantine.
However, despite these circumstances, those great artists love Japan and are happy to come back to Chiba and Osaka from all over the world. I am certain that it is simply because of the strong connection Japanese promoters have built over the past half century with global artits and the love from Japanese fans.
I can tell you how this summer is going to be. In August, Summer Sonic is going to make a full & strong comeback. Festivals overseas like Coachella are coming up very soon and moving forward to reach this goal. We cannot win back the time we lost, but please give us a chance to make it up! Instead of being afraid and staying inside, why don’t we feel the connection to the world by experiencing our Summer Sonic! Let’s bring back the exciting days with full of live music fesivals! We cannot fulfill our dreams without dreaming.
