T.N.T Announces Nippon Budokan Performance in 2027
Rising rock band T.N.T, fronted by former NEWS member Tegoshi Yuya, will perform at the iconic Nippon Budokan on February 4, 2027 in a show titled SUPERNOVA. The performance marks a major milestone for the band.

T.N.T is heading to one of Japan's most prestigious venues. The rising rock band will perform at Nippon Budokan on February 4, 2027 for a solo show titled SUPERNOVA—a name that reflects both the band's explosive energy and their signature high-intensity live performances.
The band is led by vocalist Tegoshi Yuya, best known for his time in the idol group NEWS. Joining him are drummer KYOHEY and bassist-violinist Furutatsu, both selected through an audition process overseen by YOSHIKI. Guitarist Ryu rounds out the lineup, adding another layer to the group's dynamic rock sound.
The Nippon Budokan booking represents a significant career achievement for T.N.T, whose blend of rock instrumentation and idol sensibilities has already garnered attention. Their debut album DETONATION showcases this unique approach—tracks like "Starting Over" and "SHINE" lean into catchy, upbeat melodies reminiscent of idol pop, while songs such as "HAITOKU" and "Leap of Faith" showcase heavier rock elements with metal-influenced guitars and orchestral strings.
To give fans a taste of what to expect at Budokan, T.N.T shared live footage from their first tour, THE NEXT TRIGGER, performed in intimate venues. The group has also released acoustic versions and music videos that demonstrate the musicianship and visual creativity they bring to their performances.
For international fans unable to attend the Budokan show, DETONATION provides a comprehensive introduction to the band's sound. The album spans from playful rock-pop tracks with Tegoshi's signature vocals to emotionally nuanced slower pieces and high-energy rockers packed with intricate arrangements.
Ticket details and additional information about the SUPERNOVA performance are expected to be announced as the February 4, 2027 date approaches.
