About the band: 

umbrella hails from the Kansai region, and is made up four members: Yui, Syu, Hal, and Sho. With their concept, “An umbrella over your heart”, the band has built up a distinct sound and a strong following with heartfelt songs and emotional performances.

umbrella formed in March 2010, and underwent a change of members in August 2012 to become what it is today. They have appeared at overseas concerts and have performed at Saitama Super Arena, and have hosted events and one-band concerts to one sold out show after another.

Their music – beautiful, raw, and heartrendingly sad - holds and umbrella over your heart. Simply hone your senses and listen - no words are needed. Feel yourself be swallowed up by umbrella’s rainstorm of sound. 

Umbrella is appearing at Anime North 2015 in association with J-rock North Promotions Inc. Please join them on Saturday May 23rd for another amazing live concert.
