Sakura Zensen Brings Japanese Enka to London This October
The visual-kei supergroup Sakura Zensen—featuring Seth (Moi dix Mois), KOUKI (D=OUT), and TSUKASA (D'ESPAIRSRAY)—will make their overseas debut in London with a fan meeting and full live performance in October.

Sakura Zensen is heading to London for their first overseas shows, marking a significant moment for the Japanese enka vocal trio. The group, which has already claimed two number-one singles on the Japanese enka charts, will perform across two events this October.
On October 10, fans can meet the trio at Rhum Tavern for an intimate gathering from 2 PM to 4 PM GMT. The fan meeting costs £35 and includes a drink, games with the members, photo cards, autographs, and the chance to purchase exclusive two-shot selfie tickets. Attendees can even bring items from the artists' previous bands for signing. The event is limited to ages 18 and up with restricted seating.
The following night, October 11, Sakura Zensen takes the stage at Colours Hoxton for their proper debut performance (6 PM to 10:30 PM GMT). The show splits into two parts: the first half features Sakura Zensen performing their original material, while the second half—billed as "Visual-kei Mavericks"—shifts focus to Seth and KOUKI on vocals with TSUKASA on drums, covering classics from their respective bands and rare visual-kei tracks.
General admission tickets are £40, with an optional VIP upgrade for an additional £40 that includes early entry, a four-shot photo using your phone, and a signed photo card. Important note: VIP doesn't include general admission, so both tickets are required if you want the full VIP experience.
Tickets go on sale May 30 at noon GMT. Both events are 18 plus only.
The trio brings serious pedigree to these shows. Seth is known for his work with Moi dix Mois and Redo, KOUKI comes from D=OUT, and TSUKASA has drummed for D'ESPAIRSRAY, Luv PARADE, and THE MICRO HEAD 4N'S. Their collaboration as Sakura Zensen represents a unique blend of enka vocal tradition with the theatrical energy of visual-kei, making this London debut an exciting moment for both communities.
