"CANNONBALL" Comment
Yesterday, May 30, we announced an additional five groups as the second round of performing artists, bringing the total to a lineup of 15 diverse and amazing artists, but today we are announcing that one more incredible artist will perform on Aug. 11.
That is, Eikichi Yazawa!!
Eikichi Yazawa, the biggest originator of rock 'n' roll in this country, who is celebrating his 50th solo debut anniversary this year and has a two-day solo concert at Tokyo Dome scheduled for November, is coming to the first CANNONBALL!
When we made the offer with the sentiment, "In the height of midsummer, we want to create a grand, quintessential music festival unique to today's era and today's Japan," the participation of this great artist was decided.
And, prompted by Mr. Yazawa's own idea that if CANNONBALL aims to be a special festival, he too would want to appear in a special way and liven things up, his appearance will take the special form of "SUPER LEGEND TIME."
On the day, he will deliver a solid short live performance characteristic of a legend who continues to run through the wilderness of rock 'n' roll with a solitary stance. A special artist performing a special live show at a special festival in a special summer—CANNONBALL, it's becoming even more amazing!!
