What this is
Odotte Bakari no Kuni (踊ってばかりの国) is a Japanese psychedelic rock band led by vocalist and guitarist Shimizu Kento, known for their hypnotic, emotionally raw sound that blends shoegaze, folk, and noise rock. This tour celebrates the release of their 10th full album 'PRISM,' with the tour titled 'Blowin' in the Wind' — a nod to their introspective, searching musical identity. The Hiroshima date at Club Quattro is part of a nationwide release tour bringing the new material to fans across Japan. Odotte Bakari no Kuni have built a devoted cult following over more than a decade and are regarded as one of Japan's most artistically uncompromising indie rock acts.
Who should go
This show is ideal for fans of Japanese indie and psychedelic rock, as well as listeners who appreciate artists like Fishmans, Quruli, or shoegaze-influenced bands. The atmosphere at Club Quattro tends to be intimate and focused, drawing a passionate, music-first crowd rather than a casual one. Foreign visitors with an interest in Japan's underground rock scene will find this a genuinely authentic live experience. Arrive early to secure a good standing position, as the venue fills quickly for acts with this level of following.
Good to know
Tickets are sold through eplus.jp and pia.jp — both platforms accept foreign credit cards, and Lawson convenience store pickup (combini) is the most hassle-free collection method for visitors. Club Quattro Hiroshima is a mid-sized live music venue with a capacity of around 500–700, operating as a fully standing floor with a bar area; the atmosphere is close and energetic. Your queue number (整理番号) determines your entry order, not a reserved spot, so arriving before doors open to line up in number order is recommended. Bring cash for merchandise and drinks at the bar, as smaller venues in Japan often have limited card payment options at the counter. Show duration for a full album release tour set typically runs 90 minutes to two hours.
