He's performed here solo, and next month he'll be back with the full team. Lead singer Hiro from the Japanese rock band My First Story took to the stage at Anime Festival Asia last year, an in a recent interview with AsiaOne, he told us he's looking forward to performing here with his members Nob, Teru and Kid'z in the group's first Asia tour. "This is a new challenge for me, so I'm both excited and nervous," said 31-year-old Hiro as he recalled visiting Universal Studios Singapore and eating "lots of crabs" last year. Meanwhile, bassist Nob, 40, said he's happy about their reception at the recent South Korea stop and looking forward to Singapore's. Their upcoming concert here would be Nob and guitarist Teru's first time in Singapore, while drummer Kid'z said he was here before to support a concert by another artist. When asked what they are excited and nervous about in their tour, Nob and Teru both said they are eager to try local cuisine but are worried because of the language barrier. My First Story was formed in 2011 and debuted the following year. Since then, they've released 12 albums and toured Japan. When we asked them about the most memorable song they've recorded together, everyone had the same answer. "It was a song from our first album. It was our first time recording, so we remember being very nervous at the time," they said. Fast forward to 2024, they're now the band behind the opening and ending theme songs for the newest season of the hit anime Demon Slayer. [embed] Teru, 33, said he was surprised when they got the news, sharing his favourite character is the main antagonist Kibutsuji Muzan because of his appearance among the villain characters. Nob agreed: "It's one of my favourite manga and I've watched the anime, so I never thought we'd actually do it and was surprised, but more than anything, I was happy." Kid'z, 32, was happy as he knew about Demon Slayer even though he doesn't watch anime, with Hiro adding: "My favourite character is Tanjiro. I'm not the kind of person who can say everything I think, so I really admire his honest way of life." My First Story will perform at the Sands Theatre on July 13. Tickets start at $108 and can be purchased on Ticketmaster. [[nid:712326]] syarifahsn@
