J-POP DANCE/VOCAL Group DA-ICE to Make Overseas Debut at Fanime 2016

Japanese dance/vocal group Da-iCE will make their American performance debut at FanimeCon later this month at the San Jose Convention Center, May 27-30. The groundbreaking five-member group has scored multiple chart-topping hits in Japan, becoming a pop music sensation for their multi-octave range, modern dance style, handsome looks, and sophisticated fashions. Their concert at FanimeCon will be the first chance for American fans to see the group’s energetic stage show that has sold out concerts across Japan.

 
The five members of Da-iCE (pronounced “Dice”) — Yudai, Sota, Taiki, Toru, and Hayate — have visited the U.S. twice before for dance lessons with America’s top choreographers, and each member is looking forward to meeting American fans in the intimate Q&A and autograph sessions at FanimeCon. The San Jose concert (the group’s first live show for non-Japanese audiences) will feature a full showcase of songs and dancing, matching the power of their recent tours.
 
Da-iCE will also bring limited quantities of official merchandise from Japan (available at the Kinokuniya booth) — CDs, DVD, T-shirts, towels, mini-poster + ID card sets (first release at FanimeCon), tote bags, iPhone cases — and there will be a rare and limited-admission Da-iCE photo session for fans who purchase a special goods package at the event.
