Love Scene + It's a Delicious...!! (Independent Days)

Artist Profile

• Raspberry Circus

  Raspberry Circus Formed in 1988 by vocalist Hiroaki Furuta and bassist Kenji 'Matty' Shimizu, Raspberry Circus traces its roots back to the predecessor band STEACY ROXX. Guitarist Daisuke Kan joined the following year, and in 1995, drummer Takeyuki 'cozi' Furusawa came on board. With this lineup, the band adopted the name Raspberry Circus and officially launched their activities. From their indie days, they built a loyal following through energetic live performances centered around the iconic Shibuya live venue La.mama. They released their mini-album It's a Delicious......!! under the venue's Engine label. Gaining further attention, they went on to release one more mini-album and three singles through the Break Out label, associated with TV Asahi. In 1999, Raspberry Circus made their major label debut with the album Shabon no Miraizu (Soapy Future Map), followed by another single and a full album before disbanding in March 2002. After a temporary halt in activity, they reunited at Shibuya La.mama in 2007, and in 2015, held a special one-night-only revival concert at TSUTAYA O-WEST. In 2019, they thrilled fans once again with a solo tour titled Amazing Space Flight Tour 2019. The band's unique appeal lies in the way each member's individuality blends into a distinctive musical world, combined with their powerful and expressive live performances. Now in 2025, Raspberry Circus returns with the much-anticipated Starry Sky Time Warp Tour 2025. On May 5, 2025, they will also digitally release the remastered compilation LOVE SCENE + It's a Delicious...!! (Independent Days) across major music platforms. The vibrant sounds of their indie era are coming back to life - and more remastered releases from their early days are on the way. Their music, returning once more to the stage, will echo across time and space.
