What this is
Three acts sharing a stage under the banner 'All -zen-' — a word that nods to both 'all' and the Japanese concept of wholeness. Upper Upper Brothers are a three-piece whose sound roams from sun-drenched surf-pop to hard-edged rock; MIDORINOMARU is a piano-and-drums duo now in their 16th year, releasing their eighth album on New Year's Day 2026; and NakamuraEmi rounds out a bill that spans instrumental minimalism, mixed-genre rock, and singer-songwriter territory. Club Quattro Shibuya is an intimate mid-capacity room with a strong reputation for exactly this kind of curated multi-act night.
Who should go
Japanese indie music fans who enjoy genre-hopping bills will get the most from this. Curious expats open to discovering established domestic acts in a small-venue setting will find it accessible even without prior knowledge of the artists.
Good to know
Advance tickets are available through eplus.jp and pia.jp, both of which accept foreign credit cards; convenience store pickup via Lawson Loppi terminals is the most hassle-free option for visitors without a Japanese delivery address. Club Quattro Shibuya is located on the upper floors of the Parco building in Shibuya and holds around 800 people — it is a standing venue with a relaxed, music-focused crowd. Arrive by doors (18:00) if you want a good position near the front; the bar area at the back is a comfortable option for those who prefer more space. The venue generally allows photography between acts but not during performances — check on the night. Cash is accepted at the bar; some card payment is available but cash is safer to have on hand.
