All the Acts you can see at the Lantis Music Festival

by Lantis Music Festival (Paid ment),


Ask and you shall receive. The world famous Lantis Festival is finally landing on US soil. If you weren't already familiar, Lantis is actually the largest record label for anime and video game songs, and have been putting out music from your favorite Japanese artists for 15 years. After years of North American fans only being able to enjoy large scale anime music festivals via DVDs and video online, the ANISONG World Tour - Lantis Festival will touch down on American soil on January 16th & 17th 2015. The tour will take place far from any sign of snow in lovely Las Vegas, Nevada at The t, a 4,500 person capacity venue inside of the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.

The unprecedented two day festival will feature seven of the label's top acts, performing songs from your favorite shows & games. It's time to get your favorite artist's light stick charged up, and your dancing shoes ready, as shows of this caliber don't come Stateside very often. Let me give you a quick introduction of the plethora of musical treats that are stacked up inside the party.

Headlining the show is the masters of anime music themselves, JAM Project. If you didn't know already, JAM stands for Japan Animationsong Makers. A good name for a band that have released countless anime and video theme songs over a prolific 14 year career. Contributing songs to fan favorite shows like: Yu-Gi-Oh!, Shin Getter Robo, Mazinkaizer, Bakuman, Cardfight!! Vanguard and of course the Transformers: Animated show, JAM Project have been an anime staple in anime fans' homes for quite some time. If for some reason you missed their over-the-top, invigorating show last time they came to North America, don't you dare miss a chance to see anime and music history unfold from the best in the business. When JAM Project get together and take the stage, it's an unparalleled show of energy, unity, and crowd excitement. If you want to get a taste of what you're going to experience, I highly recommend you pick up one of their live DVDs or do a quick internet search. Pay attention to the huge crowd, all singing together in anime and music bliss. These kind of shows just do not happen like this anymore! Don't miss your chance this time!



But wait… there's more. If JAMmers thought that the good news was over, think again. Each member of JAM Project will be having their own solo show, showcasing their talents as individuals. Talk about a Voltron moment!

“CHA-LA HEAD CHA-LA!” That's right, Hiroshi Kitadani takes the stage and we all look forward to belting out his theme song from One Piece!



Anyone who was lucky enough to see her before is probably still vibing from Nichijou, Senran Kagura, and So, I can't play H!. Maybe she'll do another K-On! cover this year?






Prepare to pick your jaws off the floor. The gorgeous and multi-talented Milky Holmes. If you aren't a fan yet, make sure to yourself a favor and check out her amazing music videos on YouTube when you get a chance.



A true veteran in anime and games music, The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky, and most recently “Natsu no Hi to Kimi no Koe” --the opening to Glasslip. Her songs are both elegant and inspiring, garnering her rabid fans from across the globe. Make sure you get close to the stage for this show, as you might not want your friends seeing the emotion overtake you.



If idol music isn't quite your cup of tea, and your musical tastes tend to be on the darker side of the spectrum, Yousei Teikoku is probably your perfect cup of tea. The metal heavy, gothic inspired, electro-tinged five-piece always brings the thunder, complete with double kick drums, spooky choir chords, and a gothic stage show at a level we rarely get treated to nowadays. Looking at the band and their energy, you'd never guess that they've actually been together since 1997. Their songs have been used on Future Diary, the Mai-HIME video game, and Innocent Venus. While metal infused pop music seems to be all the rage nowadays, do yourself a favor and see the bands that actually created and mastered the genre. Also, don't forget to wear black.



The punk-pop sounds of Chiba Japan's Edelweiss series.






And if all this isn't enough, Lantis Festival just announced the addition of virtual singing superstar Hatsune Miku as a special guest to the Las Vegas artist line-up. Hatsune Miku will take the stage on both days of the exciting festival.

Talk about surprise treat for American fans of the virtual superstar! Hatsune Miku recently headlined back-to-back MIKU EXPO events in Los Angeles and New York and performed live on The Late Show with David Letterman. If you missed Miku's previous North American concerts, now is your chance to see her on stage! In fact, even if you saw her before, now is your chance to see her again!
