TONO, who some may recognize as a member of the shamisen rock band ROA, has officially joined the group after performing with them as a support member at a number of shows last year. He is taking over the spot vacated by Kubocchi, who left ROACHon September 21st, 2019 after 16 years as a member.
The band also debuted its first artist photo with this new line-up. The photo was shot in ROACH's hometown of Okinawa.
In addition, the group recently revealed some live footage from their performance at the Taiwanese rock festival ROCK IN TAICHUNG, which they appeared at last September before Kubocchi's departure.
