Spotify and Billboard Japan announced they will jointly present “Women In Music — EQUAL STAGE,” a concert spotlighting rising women artists in the country representing a variety of styles set to be held on June 9 at Tokyo’s SGC Hall Ariake as part of MUSIC AWARDS JAPAN WEEK. The lineup of performers set for the first-of-its-kind event features dance-pop outfit ATARASHII GAKKO!, rappers Awich and LANA, and rock duo Hitsujibungaku.
The event aims to promote gender equality in the music industry, an issue important to both Spotify and Billboard Japan. The companies have introduced various initiatives to spotlight a new generation of cool and confident Japanese women. EQUAL STAGE celebrates this era of performers via a one-night-only event featuring some of the biggest names in their respective styles.
TV Asashi announcer Chie Honma will serve as the MC for the event.
EQUAL STAGE is part of MUSIC AWARDS JAPAN WEEK, a week of programming ahead of the nation’s largest international awards ceremony MUSIC AWARDS JAPAN. A variety of concerts and events alongside EQUAL STAGE will be held. More information about MUSIC AWARDS JAPAN WEEK can be found here.
