The world-famous girl band BAND-MAID will be releasing their new song “Protect You” digitally on July 5th. The cover image and teaser video have also been released.
BAND-MAID, who are also known for co-writing Avicii’s “Wake Me Up” with Mike Einziger (Gt) of the American mega-band Incubus, have been well-received for their song “Bestie.” Their first new song in two and a half months is the ending theme for the TV anime “Grendizer U,” a reboot of the TV anime “UFO Robot Grendizer,” based on the original work by Nagai Go, which aired from 1975 to 1977. The combination of “Grendizer,” which is popular around the world, especially in Europe and the Middle East, and BAND-MAID, who are also popular around the world, is attracting attention.
The teaser released at the same time as the release announcement features impressive footage of cool performance scenes, and we can’t wait for the music video to be released. In addition, the artwork for the distribution jacket was produced by SAIKI (Vo) again this time.
BAND-MAID will be performing at festivals such as “RISING SUN ROCK FESTIVAL” and “SUMMER SONIC 2024” from July onwards, as well as their first hall tour “BAND-MAID HALL TOUR 2024”. Check the official website for details of the various events.

Reaction videos from fans around the world are being released one after another on YouTube, with over 40 million views. Supported by rock and metal fans around the world, they are now the most popular girl band overseas, with over 20,000 people attending their 2022 US tour.

The year 2023 will mark the 10th anniversary of the band’s formation and they will hold a 10th anniversary tour around the world.
They performed at four major overseas festivals, including Lollapalooza, one of the world’s largest festivals, and concluded their 10th anniversary with the final show at Yokohama Arena.
2024 is set to be the beginning of a new chapter, with a full album scheduled to be released in the summer.
In April, he released “Bestie,” a song he co-wrote with Mike Einziger of the global mega-band “INCUBUS,” who is also known as the composer of Avicii’s “Wake Me Up,” and he continues to make strides on a global scale toward his goal of world domination.
