People who still think female Japanese musicians are all about cute bubblegum pop need to reassess the situation by listening to Wagamamarakia. This four-member group of singer-songwriters is actively breaking away from the traditional idol framework, and emphasising self-driven music creation instead. Since their debut in 2016, Wagamamarakia has performed across a wide range of genres and influences, including rock, hip-hop, R&B, EDM, djent, alt-rock, and metalcore.
Concert-goers will be wowed by their rock band accompaniment on stage, as well as their team of dancers, who are led by the Osaka band in their routines. What’s even cooler is that the members even personally design their own outfits, injecting their personal styles into every facet of their performances. Tickets range from $380 to $1,080.
