Exactly one year from the “Luminescent Creatures” World Premiere, comes the long-awaited concert footage. Ahead of even the announcement of Ichiko Aoba’s 8th album, ”Luminescent Creatures”, its World Premiere was held in Osaka and Tokyo, with tickets selling out almost instantly. For those of you who couldn’t get a ticket, or don’t live in Japan, this is your first chance to see this show in its entirety. 
With the full ensemble of ten musicians, and an unprecedented set design, Aoba effortlessly performs songs from Windswept Adan and other songs released between 2020 and 2024 in the first half. Following a brief intermission, which sees a drastic change to the set, she debuts the songs from the (at the time) as of yet unreleased Luminescent Creatures in full. It was a one of a kind experience, now available to stream in the comfort of your home.

Recorded on October 26th, 2024 at Tokyo Showa Women’s University Hitomi Memorial Hall
