Close friends of Japan, Montreal band Your Favorite Enemies tour the country with their Hope Project, an online letter-writing campaign in which fans penned messages of support to quake survivors. After handing over the thousands of messages they have collected in ten languages to the Japanese Red Cross to be delivered to shelters across Tohoku, they will play an intimate gig in Shibuya on Friday. Led by frontman Alex Foster, Your Favorite Enemies are known as outspoken advocates for Amnesty International. They are visible here in Japan thanks to the number one hit they scored for their music to the video game Dissidia: Final Fantasy.
