ATARASHII GAKKO!

ATARASHII GAKKO! (New School!) is a Japanese girl group that exploded onto the J-pop scene from 2015 onward. Along with the appeal of their singing and dance routines, the four young members of the group (Mizyu, Rin, Suzuka, Kanon) have all fostered distinct public personalities (cute/fierce, funky, wild, graceful) in an attempt to push for a Japanese society that promotes individual freedom more widely. With so much international focus on K-pop these days, ATARASHII GAKKO! has done a lot to put J-pop back on the world map, bringing in fans from all over the globe with their positive (and somewhat subversive) modern message, classic Japanese school girl uniforms, and upbeat poppy songs. Catch them live in concert to see a new side of Japanese pop!

How did ATARASHII GAKKO! rise to fame?

The Japanese dance and vocal group Atarashii Gakko!, consisting of four members, was founded in 2015 and made their big debut under Victor Entertainment in 2017. They made a big stride toward global exposure in January 2021 when they made their debut as "ATARASHII GAKKO!" under the 88rising label. The group is well-known for its original idea, which highlights freedom and individuality against the backdrop of societal intolerance. They have regularly displayed their talent through self-choreographed dances and have worn distinctive sailor uniforms to represent their desire to express individuality despite uniformity. The group, which is run by TV Asahi Music, TWIN PLANET, and Asobi System, has become well-known for its upbeat live shows and spirit of youthful rebellion, positioning itself as a representation of Japanese youth. They simplified their name from the more complicated original nomenclature to "ATARASHII GAKKO!," which symbolized their transition to the international scene and allowed them to stay connected to their earlier works while appealing to a wider audience. The members, who came from backgrounds in children's dance and dance schools, have a serious dedication to their music and performances, despite their lighthearted and occasionally eccentric public persona. They fuse modern dance techniques with musical tastes from the Showa era. They started off as a group that happened to meet by chance in the bargain section of a supermarket, but they have accomplished a lot since then, including playing their first live show at an ageHa event and winning prizes like the judge's encouragement award at the Super Yosakoi festival. The global debut single "NAINAINAI" demonstrates a fusion of classic and contemporary inspirations. Their versatility and teamwork are demonstrated by their work with well-known personalities like Sturgill Simpson, their performances in commercials for corporations like Lotte, and their songwriting collaborations with individuals like Amin. Beyond just music, Atarashii Gakko! has influenced other artists' choreography, which has helped them get recognition both inside and outside of Japan. They further solidify their status as important figures in modern music and culture with their inventive performance style and the viral success of their "Nodding Dance" from the song "Otona Blue" on TikTok, which led to a sizable online following and recognition in awards like the GQ MEN OF THE YEAR 2023. Their involvement in esteemed occasions such as NHK's Kohaku Uta Gassen and their receipt of special recognition at the Japan Gold Disc Awards attest to their noteworthy influence on the music landscape, both nationally and globally.
