The performers for one of Japan’s most important New Year show, the 69th Kouhaku Uta Gassen has been announced. Kouhaku is an annual music show aired by the Japanese broadcasting company NHK on New Year's Eve. The performers are separated into two teams, red for the females, and white for the males. Only the most popular performers are invited to the show and at the end of the night, the audience votes on which team performed better.

Some of the highlights this year include South Korean pop group TWICE and pop group Little Glee Monster making their second appearances in a row, DAOKO making her first appearance who is best known for her music in the mobile game Dragalia Lost, and HYDE’s (L’Arc-en-Ciel, Vamps) first appearance teaming up with the legendary YOSHIKI. The idol group Aqours from the anime Love Live Sunshine!! and performers from the musical adaptation of the mobile game Touken Ranbu, will also be making a special appearance.

By now you may have heard of the international hit sensation Perfume. Their music has been featured in Pixar's Cars 2 movie and they recently made a cameo appearance in American alternative rock group OK Go's music video, "I Won't Let You Down." On November 9, 2014, after two “World Tours” oddly both skipping North America, I am composing this article as Perfume is performing live on stage at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles. Check out our report!

After being excluded from the first two world tours, fans in America can finally rejoice as the hit electronica idol group Perfume will be performing in the United States on November 9th, 2014 in Los Angeles at the Hollywood Palladium. Oddly enough, the group will also be performing on November 15th, 2014 at Hammerstein Ballroom in New York after performing in the UK on November 12th.

The Hollywood Palladium has a capacity of 3700 people while the Hammerstein can hold 2200 people and tickets will be handled through Ticket Master at roughly $35 not counting any additional applicable fees. No word yet when tickets will become available or on tour goods yet but we’ll let know as soon as more information is released. Besides USA and the UK, Taiwan and Singapore will also be part of the tour stop. We've included the tour trailer announcement below.
