Following their sold-out shows at The Underworld Camden and Boston Music Room in 2018, Japanese electronic rock/metal band Esprit D’Air will be back in London to perform a special 10th-anniversary show at The Dome in London on Saturday 24 October 2020. This is going to be their biggest show so far.

Marking the band’s decade, the show will showcase their back catalogue, including their award-winning album Constellations as well as brand new songs that have never been heard before.

Esprit D’Air are currently working on recording their brand new album, Oceans featuring singles, Amethyst and Calling You, which were both featured on BBC Radio and Louder. The upcoming album Oceans was due to be released last year. However, due to burglary, the progress of the album was lost in April 2019. Esprit D’Air are now re-recording all the parts and creating new material once again.

Fronted by Kai on guitar and vocals, Esprit D’Air are joined by the live talents of Jan-Vincent Velazco (Pendragon & Raymond Watts’ PIG) on drums, T.T. (Knights of Round, Unlucky Morpheous) on bass, Ryoma Takahashi on guitar, as well as special guests to be confirmed for the show.

Reformed in 2016, Esprit D’Air are a self-produced and self-signed Japanese rock band based in London led by vocalist, composer and producer, Kai. Consequently, the band produces, mixes and masters their own releases, and promotes their own shows, including this very own 10th-anniversary show. In 2018, the band toured Europe and performed at AVO J-Music Festival in The Hague as the headliner.

The details of the show are as follows:

Esprit D’Air – 10th-Anniversary Show
Date: Saturday 24 Oct 2020
Location: The Dome, Tufnell Park, London
Tickets: £20 (around €22,00)

Tickets for the show are on sale on 24 April 2020 at 10 am (BST) on SeeTickets and Eventbrite UK.

Live photo of the idol group ASP on stage, in the middle of performing a song. The stage is brightly lit with red and blue lights. They have their right arms raised while singing. The members are dressed in leather(-like) clothing, giving the idea that it is inspired by motor clothing. The clothing is mostly black but differently decorated, with red and blue stripes, white stars in different sizes, and other symbols or words. Some of them are fully dressed like that, while others have extra additions, like a tartan-style skirt. Photography by JJ Grant (wonderlens)
