Singaporean alternative band sub:shaman takes their debut full length album, Apnea, to the land of the rising sun!
Partnering with the inimitable Aya Sekine from BON GOÛT MUSIC (BGM) to bring their music to Japan for the very first time, the band will play six shows across four cities – namely Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto and Fukuoka – from 8th to 17th June.
Shows include an outing to Aoyama Moon Romantic with Nao Kawamura and King Gnu (ex.Srv.Vinci), as well as a Singapore showcase in Osaka – organised by BGM – featuring Aya Sekine, weish and blankverse.
sub:shaman will also be sharing the stage with Japanese rock band, Qu in Kyoto and Osaka.

The tour will culminate with a festival performance at Akibahara Club Goodman for Tokyo Boredom #12. The Japanese festival will feature a cool 18 bands from various cities in Japan, including Groundcover., Bossston Cruizing Mania and many more!
