Las-Vegas born alt-rock monster band, Imagine Dragons, has announced their first show in Japan in 6 years.

Formed in 2008, the group gained worldwide fame with their 2012 debut album, Night Visions, which included the chart-topping single “Radioactive.” Since then they have performed in Japan three times–twice at Summer Sonic and once in 2018 for a solo performance.

The Grammy-winning alt-rock band is known among Japanese fans for their incorporation of Japanese elements in their music. Their song entitled “Tokyo” features lyrics in Japanese, while other performances have utilized taiko (traditional Japanese drums). Owing to this fact or not, Imagine Dragons has garnered a considerable fanbase in Japan.

The feeling is mutual, it seems: “There’s only one thing I can’t stand about Japan… The food is too damn good!” joked Dan Reynolds, lead vocal of the band, in their 2018 performance.

Following the release of their most recent album, Room, the band will go on world tour starting in September, visiting countries along the American continent before performing in Asia, culminating in their grand finale: Tokyo.

Do yourself a favor, grab tickets now. These pioneers of rock music are sure to have a jam-packed energy-fueled performance in store for us.
