This program was newly created after the “CROSS AWA pre. Sing-along Festival” held in May 2024 was very well received, and the AWA Lounge’s unique performers, who transcend the boundaries between artists and streamers, will deliver heart-shaking singing and playing. The third episode will feature three groups: singer Miyuna, who will sing the original theme song for the new Thursday drama “Octo – Emotional Investigator Kokoro no Akari – Season 2” in October; alternative singer-songwriter “Mine”, whose music has a deep world where every single one of her behavior and gestures has meaning; and AWA Lounge streamer ALAT, who performs singing and playing mainly J-POP. Anyone can join the AWA Lounge for free via the AWA app or WEB, and listeners can interact with artists via chat.
