What this is
This is a solo live performance by Kisho Taniyama — known as KISHOW — the vocalist of the beloved anime music duo GRANRODEO, held at the intimate and prestigious Billboard Live TOKYO. The show is staged in support of his 2024 solo album 'Shinya Reiji,' marking a rare opportunity to see him perform outside of the GRANRODEO context. His GRANRODEO bandmate e-ZUKA will appear as a special guest, adding an extra layer of excitement for fans of the duo. The full backing band includes guitar, bass, drums, keyboards, and saxophone, promising a rich, polished live sound. Billboard Live TOKYO is one of Japan's premier music dining venues, known for its high production values and close-up, cabaret-style seating.
Who should go
This event is ideal for fans of GRANRODEO, anime music, and Japanese rock-pop who want an intimate, high-quality live experience rather than a large arena show. The Billboard Live format means a sophisticated, seated atmosphere with food and drinks available — quite different from a typical anime music concert. Attendees who appreciate musicianship and a more grown-up concert setting will feel right at home. Two stages are available on the same evening, so fans who want to attend twice or couldn't get a first-stage ticket have a second chance. Book your preferred stage early, as Billboard Live TOKYO has limited capacity and GRANRODEO-related events sell out quickly.
Good to know
Tickets for Billboard Live TOKYO events are sold directly through the Billboard Live Japan official website (billboard-live.com), which accepts foreign credit cards including Visa and Mastercard — no convenience store pickup is required. Billboard Live TOKYO is a seated, table-style venue with a capacity of around 300, offering an exceptionally intimate atmosphere compared to typical concert halls. A table charge (food and drink minimum) of approximately ¥2,000–¥3,000 per person applies on top of the ticket price, so factor this into your budget. The venue is non-smoking, smart-casual dress is appreciated, and doors open one hour before showtime — arriving promptly at door open is recommended to order drinks and settle before the performance. Photography and video recording are generally prohibited during Billboard Live performances.
