Guided by the common technique known as the “Chopper Method,” the strongest triple-bass unit THE CHOPPERS REVOLUTION, commonly referred to as CHOPPEREVO, brings together three superb bassists from different generations and genres: Yoshihiro Naruse, IKUO, and Takayuki Murata. Last year they celebrated their 10th anniversary, and with the release of their third album they held an anniversary concert that is still fresh in memory; they will take the Billboard Live stage again this year. Special guests have been announced: Makoto Kamioka & Choppers Aires, who made a stunning debut last year and whose mood kayōkyoku track “Chasing Kantō” became a hot topic. In this Billboard Live tour, they push the funk-music concept from last year even further, delivering a spectacular stage performance with a lavish lineup featuring a horn section and KiKi, a gospel & soul singer representing Hokkaido, under the title “DANCE GROOVE.”
