Musical Guests Announced for Tekko 2019

Tekko, formerly known as Tekkoshocon, is an annual Japanese pop culture convention held at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. This year, the convention will stretch from April 11th to 14th, and it has been announced that it will be welcoming three musical guests.

First of all, ex-SuG vocalist Takeru's solo project sleepyhead will be making its US debut at the event. He will also be joined by the second guest, DJ and music producer TeddyLoid, during his performance. TeddyLoid was featured as a DJ on the song 1 2 3 for hype sex heaven from sleepyhead's October 2018 EP NIGHTMARE SWAP, and he also arranged the track. The third guest will be "contemporary creative unit" MYTH & ROID, who have been responsible for theme songs for anime series such as "Overlord", "Bubuki/Buranki" and "Re:Zero – Starting Life in Another World". Interestingly, the group's producer Tom-H@ck also contributed to sleepyhead's NIGHTMARE SWAP. He arranged the song INSIDE OUT KISS.

Admission for the convention can be purchased via Tekko's official website. Further details regarding the guests' specific performance dates and any other appearances during the convention will be announced closer to the event.
