 in Los Angeles on July 1 and 2. The tour continues with concerts in Santa Ana, California and New York City. ASTERISM formed in 2014 when guitarist HAL-CA, then 11 years old, met brothers MIO on drums and MIYU on bass at a music competition. Together, they released their first EP The Session Vol. 1 in 2017. Since then, the trio developed a reputation for their intricate, technical, and virtuosic displays in the studio and on stage. Last September, ASTERISM released mini album Animetic, which features nine cover tracks of popular anime theme songs. In a recent interview with TV program J-Melo on Japan’s public channel NHK, HAL-CA declared she’d like to try out these tunes for overseas audiences. MIO and MIYU nodded in agreement. Although there have been no specific announcements on the AX setlist, a sampling of the Animetic tracks would be a wonderful treat for the con attendees. On the heels of Animetic, ASTERISM followed up in March with a five-track EP ASIDE, a collection of all original compositions. Adding a fresh element, HAL-CA penned lyrics and took on the role of lead vocalist for all five songs. Check out the official music video for the opener Fiction!
