On September 25th, the Korean band CNBLUE talked about their upcoming major label debut at a press conference at the Yokohama Arena in Yokohama, Kanagawa.
After building up their fanbase in Japan and even performing as the opening act for Linkin Park, the band is finally going to make their major label debut under Warner Music Japan with their single “In My Head“. They first came to Japan as an indies band in the summer of 2009 and have made more than 100 performances on the street and music clubs within just six months.
All the effort back then helped improve their music and now they are on the level to stand next to popular domestic bands such as flumpool, ONE OK ROCK, BUMP OF CHICKEN, and others.
They commented, “We’ve been active as an indies band since 2009 and have improved a lot since then. Now that are going to have our major label debut, we’d like to continue to improve ourselves.” Further they added, “We are really happy, but we hope that we will be able to keep the same feeling we had during our time as an indies band.” With a smile they proclaimed, “We’d like to become as big as B’z!”
After the interview they went to perform songs from their second indies album at the Yokohama Arena, and were amazed by the huge venue. They said, “We are really happy that we get to hold our last concert as an indies band at such a huge venue. We’d like to work hard in order to stay in our fans’ hearts!”
