More about SPYAIR:
SPYAIR is a 4-piece Japanese rock band formed in 2005.
Since their major label debut in 2010, they have earned a reputation for high-impact releases and explosive live performances. Known for major anime tie-in songs including Haikyu!, Gintama, BLEACH and Gundam, the band has built strong international recognition and a rapidly growing global fanbase.
Their first world tour in 2018 spanned three continents and 23 cities in three months, marking a milestone in their global expansion. In April 2023, YOSUKE joined as the new vocalist, ushering in a new era for the band. In February 2024, their single “Orange,” featured in Haikyu!!: The Dumpster Battle and surpassed 200 million streams worldwide, becoming a long-running global hit.
Their latest release, “Kill the Noise,” serves as the theme for the anime Sentenced to Be a Hero, reinforcing SPYAIR’s position at the forefront of anime-linked rock worldwide. In September 2026, SPYAIR held their annual outdoor concert “JUST LIKE THIS 2026” in both Japan and South Korea.
The South Korean show marked the band’s first-ever overseas edition of the event and drew 7,000 fans to a special outdoor stage, further strengthening SPYAIR’s presence beyond Japan. Their latest release is “Take Flight,” the theme song for the 2026–27 SV.LEAGUE season, which began in October.
