Teikoku Kissa has released details, the cover photo, and a teaser video for their new song “Aitai Ndayo,” which will be digitally released on Tuesday, August 6th.
For three consecutive months on Wednesday, July 3rd, Tuesday, August 6th, and Friday, September 6th, they will be releasing singles written and composed by Sugiura Yuki (Gt.Vo), Hikita Akira (Ba), and Sugisaki Takuto (Dr), and will be holding the Monthly Live 2024 “LOVE & PEACE & MUSIC IN OUR NEW WORLD” at Shinsaibashi Music Club JANUS. This is a special project that only Teikoku Kissa, which has three melody makers among its members, can do. The lyrics and composition for this work were written by Sugiura Yuki (Gt.Vo).
As Sugiura commented, “The more I think about the other person, the more I realize that the things I don’t know and can’t understand are as infinite as the universe. I sometimes feel at a loss as to how endless it all is, but the reason I want to build a relationship with them so much is because the people who listen to Teikoku Kissa’s music are important to me. I wrote this song with the hope of never forgetting those feelings,” and the new song is filled with the desire to deepen bonds and connect with listeners through music.
This is also expressed in the lyrics “But I still want to see you” and “I’ll come to see you again and again, just for you”, which make a heartfelt appeal along with the dashing melody.
We have created a song that will surely reach both those who have already encountered Teikoku Café and those who have not yet.
The striking jacket, featuring a girl with a melancholy expression against the backdrop of the sky, sea, and mountains, was designed by Akri (Gt), who has long been in charge of designing the band’s merchandise, flyers, and more.
In addition, it has been announced that “Aitai Ndayo” will be aired for the first time on FM82’s “EVENING TAP,” which will be broadcast live from 6pm today, Thursday, August 1st.
You’ll be able to hear the new songs early, so tune in and look forward to their release.
The new song “Aitai Ndayo” is scheduled to be performed live for the first time on Tuesday, August 6th at Teikoku Kissa Monthly Live 2024 “LOVE & PEACE & MUSIC IN OUR NEW WORLD PEACE Edition Presented by Sugiura Yuki.”
After the monthly live shows and summer festivals, the band will be holding their solo tour 2024 “Let’s go and welcome the light under the sky with you” in October, visiting a total of nine locations including Zepp.
Tickets are available at play guides on a first-come, first-served basis.
Take this opportunity to check out their autumn tour.

Comment from Yuki Sugiura (Gt.Vo)
“The usual Teikoku Kissa live shows are born from the combination of the colors of the three songwriters, but on this day I hope that you will feel that the Teikoku Kissa live show is centered around my feelings. I will sing with the hope of bringing peace to everyone’s hearts!”
