Formed in Japan in 2010, BABYMETAL have grown from the seeds sown by band overseer KOBAMETAL and evoIved steadiIy into one of the most powerfuI musical phenomena in the worId today. Backed and supported by some of the finest metaI musicians their native Iand has to offer, SUMETAL, YUIMETAL and MOAMETAL began their mission to unify the world through Heavy Metal. BABYMETAL’s success in their native country Japan Ied to Top 10 singIes in the Oricon chart in Japan, performances at several major festivaIs in Japan, incIuding Summer Sonic 2013 and two consecutive sold out nights at Tokyo’s Iegendary Budokan venue in March 2014, in front of 20,000 people.
EventuaIIy, BABYMETAL’s reputation had crossed the globe and was beginning to make waves in Europe and America too. With video clips with over 25 million views, the band became a sudden and huge internet phenomenon, leaving pop and metal fans around the worId in no doubt about the magic and might of this new musical force. BABYMETAL made their first worId tour, traversing continents to perform at the ceIebrated Sonisphere festivaI in Knebworth, EngIand (and won over a vast fi eId of 65,000 diehard metalheads in the process), were invited by pop icon Lady Gaga to support her on her prestigious ArtRave: The Artpop BaII tour in the US, and pIayed various soId out shows throughout Europe and in New York.
