It’s been a while since we wrote about happy rock ‘n’ roll band THE TOMBOYS, but some fun news emerged recently when the four-piece band surprised fans with an announcement of a tour in Europe.

The band has already been to Europe several times for a tour, but due to the pandemic, the band had to wait five years to follow it up. The tour will take place in April with shows in Germany, the Netherlands and Spain. The tour will conclude with shows at JAPAN WEEKEND in Valencia.

The four-piece rock band has not really stood still, last November they released a single titled IN MY ROOM, furthermore they have regular shows in Japan. In 2021, they released their very first full-length album, titled MY GENERATiON TO, in the same year they welcomed a new drummer and the four ladies celebrated the 10th anniversary of THE TOMBOYS. The band began as a SCANDAL cover band in 2011 when the girls were 14 years old, the band was then called NoName and entered the annual SCANDAL cover band competition. They eventually made the decision to continue as THE TOMBOYS and write their own original music.
