BAR Con (Booze. Anime. Rock.) is a 21+ destination for anime, game and Japanese music fans to meet up between conventions. It’s a monthly event that happens on the first Thursday of each month. Each month, we have anime viewing on 2 screens, retro gaming, and change the lineup of musical performers.
BAR Con: Episode 4 will feature the anime Samurai Champloo, retro game Bust-A-Move, band performances by Lolita Dark and Phoenix Ash and DJ Lawbster spinning anime music, J-Pop and more.
More about the bands performing…
Lolita Dark is an Epic Rock band with roots in Southern California and Japan, formed in 2012. Fronted by Shibuya-born singer/songwriter Rayko, their sound and visuals depict a world of light and dark, East meets West, and past meets present. Their sound weaves together crunching guitar riffs, progressive baselines, lush harmonies and complex melodic structures in songs that reflect both the angst and optimism of an increasingly interconnected world.
Phoenix Ash is America's own Japanese Rock band. As the sole Americans on the influential Plug Records label in Japan (Daizy Stripper, Fest Vainqueur) Phoenix Ash is breaking musical and cultural barriers, fusing the essences of Japanese and American rock with their unique brand of infectious melodies and heart pumping anthems.
