Shibuya Crossing — Anime North 2015 Music and Fashion Special this Wednesday, May 27th: 2-4pm

May 26 2015 // CJLO

An action-packed special edition of CJLO's international Japanese Music program Shibuya Crossing is in store as we explore the sights and sounds of Canada's premiere fan-run Anime and Japanese Pop Culture Convention - Toronto's very own Anime North. 

Courtesy of J-Rock North Promotions, we interview two fledging indie Visual Kei bands from Japan, Umbrella and UchuSentai:Noiz, as they share their thoughts on performing in Canada for the second time. We also check out how they have fared up this time musically and with the overseas crowd in our Live Report. 
 
We also go behind the scenes on convention's annual fashion show and showcase some unique underground street fashion styles the participants are talking about — including Mori Kei, Shironouri, Kigurumi, Kimono, and much more. 
 
We speak with drummer Tyson Dang from the Toronto-based indie punk rock band Red Handed Denial on all the cool things related to Anime & Rock and Roll. 
 
Lastly, we feature various highlights that happened the Convention — from the cosplays, the art, the trending anime, and the conversations that are happening on the ground and beyond. 
 
All that and more on the May 27th Edition of Shibuya Crossing on CJLO, on air this Wednesday from 2 — 4pm ET, and available online to stream on Thursday, May 28th from noon on the Episode Archive of CJLO.com.
