Every year, during the Japan Expo, J-music groups perform throughout the weekend! It is with great pleasure that Japanese bands make the trip to come and play in France. This year again, many bands will play to the delight of visitors. We present you 3 of them!
Notall
Notall is a group composed of 4 idols created in 2014. Their lead single "Kimini DA-DA-DAN" was released in April 2017. To promote it, they have made a national tour and have also planned a series of concerts throughout Japan during the next summer to celebrate the 3 years of the group.
It is thanks to their victory in the Tokyo Candoll contest that the 4 Idols will perform on the famous Karasu stage for their first live in France!
Under the concept of social idol, notall wants to be the leader of the new generation of idols produced on the web. By making Internet users fully participate in the development of the group, a close relationship was created between notall and its fans. And for good reason: they are the ones who chose the name of the group, the logo and even their nicknames.
Since their beginnings in June 2014, they have collaborated with producers from 8 different countries. They continue to work with them via social networks by making them choose the goodies related to the group as well as the songs they perform.
