Formed in 2001, RADWIMPS made their major label debut
in 2005. Soon after, they garnered a broad fan base, with the younger
generation at the core. The band has released nine studio albums thus far. The
band's creation of music for Shinkai’s previous record-breaking animated
feature films "Your Name" and "Weathering with You" led
to recognitions at the Japanese Academy Award for Best Original Score.
In November 2021, the band released their studio album “FOREVER DAZE” and went on the road for a nationwide Japanese tour to support the album. “FOREVER DAZE” was written and recorded throughout the pandemic and speaks to the musical challenges the guys faced, their hopes moving forward and features a diverse group of collaborators and experimental elements. In 2022, Radwimps teamed up with highly acclaimed film music composer Kazuma Jinnouchi to create the perfect soundtrack and score for award-winning auteur director Makoto Shinkai’s latest film “Suzume”. To coincide with the movie release around the world, the band went on the road for their 2023 sold out North American, European, Australian and Asian tours leading to additional 2024 tour dates across Latin America and Asia, including Singapore, Manila, Hong Kong, Taipei, Jakarta, and Bangkok.
