 B'z is currently celebrating their 30th anniversary and took this opportunity to ask their fans on social media if anyone might have an idea of the status of Tak Matsumoto's pink Ernie Ball MUSICMAN EVH guitar that has been missing for for over twenty years. To the surprise of everyone, the guitar was found!
 Anisong World Matsuri (AWM) and Anime Expo 2018 (AX) have announced the complete lineup of anisong artists for this year’s live concert series at downtown Los Angeles’s Microsoft Theater. The three-day music festival will be held in conjunction with AX 2018, the largest celebration of Japanese pop culture in North America, held July 4 – July 8 at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
 B'z is a name that isn't too well-known outside of Japan but they're one of the biggest groups not only there, but also in the world. They're celebrating their 30th anniversary this year and they're hoping that the power of social media can help them resolve a mystery over two decades old.

 We've been hearing a lot about Mio Yamazaki lately here at A-to-J Connections and we recently reviewed their second full-length album, "choice". (That review can be found HERE.) Since we were becoming so familiar with their music we jumped at the chance for an interview and we're happy to share it with you all! Mio Yamazaki have a very interesting sound that we think can appeal to listeners here in the US and we hope this interview helps you fall in love with this amazing group!
Mio Yamazaki formed in 2013, but arguably their star rose in 2017 thanks to their breakout single "Noise" released last year. It was used as the opening theme for the fourth season of "Jigoku Shoujo/Hell Girl". Even though the name implies a solo performer, Mio Yamazaki is indeed a four-piece band whose name of course does come from the group's vocalist, Mio. Mio Yamazaki released their first full album, "anti-these", in 2016 and followed it up with "choice" last October. There music can also be heard in the application "Maji Yami Kanjojo" and a twitter drama series.  Fans of Aina The End (BiSH) will have cause to rejoice as MONDO GROSSO recently released an MV for "Itsuwari no Sympathy", a song which was released last February, which shows a side of Aina that may come as a surprise to many.
 The end of Spring will see the disbandment of Kalafina according to a recent report. While it has been speculated that the group's end would be coming soon, the suddenness of the announcement is still comes as a shock.
