ORESKABAND is another long-lasting band. Their ecclectic style adds a couple of unusual instruments in the form of a trombone and saxophone (and in the past, a trumpet). They've been performing since 2003 and one of their original members, bassist Tomi, has announced that she'll be going inactive as of this year. This upcoming event will be in her honor.

ORESKABAND originates back in the group's middle-school days in 2003. They were noticed by Sony in 2005 and signed to a contract when they were in high school. In 2007 the band performed in the United States as part of the Japan Nite tour gracing the stages of SXSW, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. Their work has been featured as ED songs for Bleach and Naruto as well as in a commercial for Pocky. Attendees of Anime Expo in 2007 may remember their appearance and they were present for the Vans Warped Tour in 2008.

The event will take place at 7PM JST (for us that'll be 3AM PST) on August 16. It'll be available for viewing until August 19. You can purchase tickets over on Twitcast at https://twitcasting.tv/c:umeda_zeela/shopcart/13295
