Creepy J-pop rock with a tinge of Cello. Mix in a vampiric steampunk sense of fashion and a Tim Burton aesthetic, and you've got yourself the Japanese gem Kanon Wakeshima, who's debut album Shinshoku Dolce, was recently released in the U.S. And just in time, as she will be making a couple rare in store performances to lucky J-lovers of California.
You heard right you west coasters. For San Fran fans, Amoeba Records will be host to Kanon on July 20 (<3 Amoeba- wish they'd open one in DC!) And J-fans of the Culver City area, make sure to save the date of July 21, as she will be making an appearance at the Royal T Cafe. And exclusive to this event- if you are into Tea and Cosplay (costume roleplay)- be sure to arrive in your best "Vampire Knight" get up, cause the first 10 through the door will get free tea. Wicked.

Happiness serves hardly any other purpose than to make unhappiness possible.
