Natsuko Nisshoku's announcements are being made simultaneously! Special solo concerts in Tokyo and Osaka, "Great Solar Eclipse Observation Meeting 2026 Summer," and a Zepp tour featuring only unreleased songs, "Area Mirai 2 'Black Hole'," have been announced!

Piano-playing singer-songwriter Natsuko Nisshoku has simultaneously announced two large-scale self-produced events with contrasting concepts.

The first event to be held this summer is the special solo live concert in Tokyo and Osaka, "Great Solar Eclipse Observation Meeting 2026 Summer".
The Tokyo concert will be held on August 6th (Thursday) at the Hitomi Memorial Hall of Showa Women's University, and the Osaka concert will be held on August 19th (Wednesday) at the NHK Osaka Hall, which will be her largest concert to date.
This will be Natsuko Nisshoku's first solo live performance in about a year and a half, and she will be focusing on her piano and vocal style, delivering everything from the staging and arrangement to the song structure in a way that feels like a summer festival, showcasing everything that Natsuko Nisshoku is right now.

Following their special solo concert, this autumn they will be holding an unprecedented live tour, "Area Mirai 2 'Black Hole'," in which they will only perform previously unreleased songs.
In 2024, the first "Unreleased Songs Tour 'Area Mirai'" was held, with prior announcements that "no existing songs would be performed" and "song titles would be given in temporary alphabetical notations." Despite being a first for both the artists and fans, all nine performances sold out immediately. Later, when it was released as their 5th Full Album "Ginka," it garnered attention for "the 'future' of that time becoming the present."

Following the overwhelming excitement and enthusiasm generated by the first event, the second installment will be held in a Zepp-sized venue. Starting with KT Zepp Yokohama on October 9th (Friday), the tour will visit seven locations nationwide, culminating in a tour finale at Zepp DiverCity (TOKYO) on November 14th (Saturday), with the band members and the Nisshoku CREW.
A "black hole" where only the genuine, latest song from Natsuko Nisshoku, which doesn't exist anywhere else yet, awaits.
We want you to come and experience an unprecedented shock.

The fastest pre-sale tickets will be available from 8 PM on Friday, May 8th.
Both projects showcase Natsuko Nisshoku's outstanding originality and playful spirit. Don't miss this opportunity to experience the past, present, and future all at once.

— Comment from Natsuko Nisshoku at the "Grand Solar Eclipse Observation Event 2026 Summer" —
In gratitude for your continued support, we will be holding "The Great Solar Eclipse Observation Party," a summer-only solo concert in a large hall where you can fully enjoy Natsuko Nisshoku's live music, in Tokyo and Osaka!
This song and that song, that kind of arrangement, this kind of staging, we'll do as much as we can, as much as we want, of the Natsuko Nisshoku you want to see right now! Just like a summer festival, we'll make it extravagant! We'll pack everything in and deliver it to you!

For those of you who have been wanting to experience Natsuko Nisshoku's live sound for a while now.
For those of you who have been wondering, "I'd like to see them live someday, but..."
It's here! Please come and join us.

— Comment from Natsuko Nisshoku on "Area Future 2: Black Hole" —
The "tour featuring only unreleased songs," which caused a stir among those involved with the phrase "I've never heard of a tour like that before" and sold out tickets for all venues almost instantly, is finally getting its second installment!
Given the overwhelming demand for tickets last time, which exceeded our expectations, we've decided to boldly expand the scale to a Zepp-class venue this time.
The only songs performed there are genuine, unreleased tracks that don't exist anywhere else yet.
Everyone, you don't need to do any preparation for this tour. Or rather... it's impossible.

On that day, you will be bombarded with an immense amount of information, as condensed as a "black hole," all at once.
Please make sure your brain, ears, and mind are in good condition before participating.

<Natsuko Solar Eclipse Profile>
Born May 8, 1991 in Hanamaki City, Iwate Prefecture.
Natsuko Nisshoku began playing piano at age 9 and songwriting at age 12. At age 17, she started her full-fledged music career as "Natsuko Nisshoku," based in Morioka. Her meticulously crafted lyrics and songwriting skills, which deeply resonate with listeners, have garnered attention, leading to numerous appearances at major festivals. Her 3rd full album, "Anti-Freeze," was selected as a winning entry in the 14th CD Shop Awards, and in recent years she has also composed many original songs, including movie theme songs and commercial music. Natsuko Nisshoku's dense music, which she produces one after another, shows no bounds of creativity. Her unique songwriting style, which expresses parts of guitar, bass, and sometimes even percussion instruments like drums using only a piano, and her musical ability and performance, transcend the imagination and frameworks of piano-playing singer-songwriters. Her piano music, which encompasses strength, weakness, sharpness, and transience, pierces the hearts of listeners and offers a truly unique musical experience.
