Since the release of her debut solo acoustic work in 2016, she has been releasing music in solo format or in band format, making it possible to present her music on the big stage but also in intimate venues. To date she has released four albums with band arrangements and five acoustic solo albums.<\/p>\n<p>She is highly regarded for her plain yet sharply focused lyrics, which are both in diary-like and poetic form, and her dynamic singing voice that goes from whispering to a powerful voice. In Japan, she draws full concert halls, in 2021 she managed to sell out a concert at the prestigious Nippon Budokan for the first time. In 2023, she released a new album, titled \u30bf\u30aa\u30eb\u30b1\u30c3\u30c8\u306f\u7a4f\u3084\u304b\u306a (<em>A towel blanket is peaceful<\/em>), as well as a vocal\/guitar recording of the same opus, titled \u30bf\u30aa\u30eb\u30b1\u30c3\u30c8\u306f\u7a4f\u3084\u304b\u306a \u3072\u3068\u308a\u3067\u306b (<em>A towel blanket is peaceful. alone<\/em>). In the same year, she held two-day arena shows. In April, she released a double A single and just before the start of her UK tour she shared two videos to promote this single.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\u30ab\u30cd\u30b3\u30a2\u30e4\u30ce - \u3055\u3073\u3057\u304f\u306a\u3044 \/ Kaneko Ayano - I\u2019m not sad\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/oYo4eNL3nbo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h3>Ayano Kaneko UK Tour 2024 Dates<\/h3>\n<p>Sunday 12 May, 2024: Oslo Hackney &#8211; London, United Kingdom<br \/>\nMonday 13 May, 2024: The Victoria &#8211; Birmingham, United Kingdom<br \/>\nThursday 16 May, 2024: The Great Escape 2024 &#8211; Brighton, United Kingdom<br \/>\nFriday 17 May, 2024: Waterbear &#8211; Brighton, United Kingdom<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Indie pop singer\/songwriter Ayano Kaneko returns to the United Kingdom with her band for a couple of performances, including an appearance at The Great Escape.
