Ginji Ito, who has continually brought a refined sound to Japan's pop scene as an artist/producer/arranger, will appear at Billboard Live for the first time in about four years. To celebrate next year's 55th anniversary of his debut, pop maestro Mari Sugimori, whose exquisite melodic sense continues to produce timeless songs loved across generations, and EPO, who has long illuminated the J-pop scene since the debut song "DOWN TOWN" for which Ito wrote the lyrics, will deliver a one-night-only special stage. Having met Eiichi Ohtaki and connected through the Naiagara Label, and having collaborated on numerous occasions and deepened their long-standing friendship, they are sure to create a special harmony that you won't want to miss.
