LITORY to organise free live event – first nine artists are announced

With ‘do not put out the fire of the live house’ as the theme, an online event is planned under the name LITORY LIVE FLAME 〜Live my own way〜 on Sunday 13 February 2021. The event is organised by artist production and event planning company LITORY.

Due to COVID-19, live music venues were forced to refrain from business, and artists and fans had no real place to share music. Currently, we are in the third wave of this pandemic, a state of emergency has been declared again in Japan, which is a cause of no prospect of live music events taking place in live music venues again. In order to keep the live music club alive in a way, LITORY decided to organise an online distribution event, on 13 February 2021, that will take full advantage of the characteristics and facilities of live music clubs. This event will be viewable worldwide for free on the YouTube channel of LITORY.

In addition to live performances, the event will be having three other elements, such as a special video of each band that will perform, interviews and extended stage productions. As this will be consisting of live performances without an audience, the venue decided to extend the stage and it will be possible to see the shows from different angles. The interviews will be conducted by personality Ken Ayugai, these interviews will be shown between band changes. You are welcome to send in questions to the Twitter account of LITORY.

The first batch of bands have been announced, consisting of KNOCK OUT MONKEY, Xmas Eileen, THE CHERRY COKE$, SECRET 7 LINE, NUBO, climbgrow, The Number Zero, THIS VERY DAY and Marina (茉莉奈).
