2023
Theme：RINA

Looking back on the past year.
In January, we brought the demos we made during our New Year's break
And started working on the album.
This is when I was starting
To look for galleries for my personal activities.

---

In February, our documentary film
Filled with important records
From our most difficult time was released
(I'd love for those who haven't seen it yet to do so︎)



In March, we were invited
To a very meaningful event



Our song "Line of sight" that we put our whole hearts into
Was released digitally.
We were invited to play a joint-band concert,
And we did a performance that was streamed︎



In April, our spring tour titled
SCANDAL TOUR 2023
「unlimited UTOPIA」
Where audience vocalization was allowed again, began︎



Right after each concert,
We talked about how we can do more and what we should do tomorrow,
And how every performance was so enthuastic.
It was a trip that properly conveyed
Our true feelings and sounds right now.



With the tour finale at the beginning of May,
We released "Line of sight" on CD.
The four of us each promoted
And did signings in different cities.



My exhibition was successfully held at the end of the month.
It was a culmination of works
Created over a year and a half
After getting the opportunity
To speak to a favorite artist of mine.
This was also fulfilling and a lot of fun!



And, we uploaded
A series of acoustic videos on TikTok.
We posted a lot of stuff on TikTok this year!

Today,
We posted the last one of the year︎

In June and July, we performed
At all sorts of festivals



We also traveled 30 hours one way
To see our fans
In Brazil



And in August was Sekai Ichi



On this day,
We completed
All of our previously stated goals!
Thanks to all of you who support us,
We were able to become
The longest running all-girl band with the same musicians.

Then, we digitally released
"Highlight no Naka de Bokura Zutto."



In September,
We were invited to some festivals and events for the first time.
We also had some fresh, new encounters



Then, in October,
We released "Highlight no Naka de Bokura Zutto" on CD
And held an autumn tour.
Since this was the month of our debut,
We incorporated many songs
From our early days to the present into our setlist
While conveying various thoughts and feelings
About the 15th anniversary of our debut.


And,
We had a rush of events in November!
We played in all sorts of places--
Outdoors, live music clubs, large venues.
We had fun
Playing an acoustic set
And wearing outfits that matched the themes.

And in December was BEST Xmas- ̗̀‎⛧
We also announced our album and tour next year.

Aaahhh
It was a crazy yearrrr
I can't attach any more photos! haha

Thank you all so much again
This year!
We've been able to do all these things
Because you guys are here
And watching us.
We're so grateful.
Thanks for all of your hard work this year!


Have a happy New Year♡
