Hanaregumi will release their ninth original album on September 25, 2024.
This will be their first album in about 3.5 years since “Hakkō-tai” in 2021. The new album will feature the drama theme song “MY夢中,” as well as “Big Smiles” and “Blue Daisy,” which were released as one-coin CDs at live venues. Additional details about the tracklist and album title will be announced soon, along with exclusive purchase bonuses from different chains.
The limited edition will include a DVD featuring select live footage from the “Hikigatari” solo concert “Faraway so close in Hibiya Outdoor Music Hall,” held in September 2023, and the upcoming tour “THE MOMENT 2024,” scheduled for March 2024.
Starting in October, Hanaregumi will embark on their first full-band national tour in 3.5 years. The band will include Masayuki Ishii (Guitar), YOSSY (Keyboard), Daichi Ito (Drums), Katsuhiro Mafune (Bass), Satoshi Takeshima (Saxophone), and Shinpei Rui (Trumpet), performing across nine cities.
