It is a live work filled with the “best” songs that show Hideaki Tokunaga’s passion for singing.
The teaser video released today includes a digest of Hideaki Tokunaga’s representative songs such as “Rainy Blue,” “Shining While…,” “Believe in the Dream,” “Wednesday Moon,” “Last Excuse,” and “Broken Radio.” As the name of the tour “ALL BEST” suggests, you can watch part of the set list of the best songs.

【Profile】
Real name: Hideaki Tokunaga
*“Toku” is in the old font, and “Ei” has a space between the crowns.
Date of birth: February 27, 1962
Birthplace: Born in Yanagawa City, Fukuoka Prefecture/Itami City, Hyogo Prefecture (junior high school and high school)
Blood type: A type
Debuted on January 21, 1986 with the single “Rainy Blue” and the album “Girl”. Her fourth single, “Shinaga na Nagara…”, released in 1987, became her biggest hit.
After that, they continued to release hit songs such as “Aeolia of the Wind”, “Last Excuse”, “Believe in Dreams”, and “Koraekake no Radio”. She is also active in TV dramas and movies.
The album “VOCALIST” was produced in 2005 for the 20th anniversary of his debut, with the concept of “covering famous songs by female artists.” A long hit as a work full of charm that is woven with the sad, gentle and delicate singing voice. It opened up a new path for us to take.
By 2015, “VOCALIST” had become a popular series, reaching six titles in the series, creating an original brand that changed its position as a “cover album.”
To date, they have released 54 singles and 18 original albums, and are actively conducting concert tours.
