Yoh Kamiyama's First UK Concert: An Anime Breeze Blew Through Manchester!

Yoh Kamiyama, one of the most unique talents to emerge from Japan in recent years, has taken a giant step in his international career. The beloved artist performed his first concert in the United Kingdom by taking the stage at the Hyper Japan Manchester 2025 event, held between November 14-16, 2025. This special event, held at Manchester Central, marks not only Kamiyama's first performance in England but also his first live performance in Europe.

Making sincere statements at the press conference held simultaneously with the concert, Yoh Kamiyama stated that he found the city of Manchester quite "stylish" and was very impressed by the energy of his fan base in Europe. The artist, who began his career in 2014 as a Vocaloid producer under the pseudonym Yukisan (Organic-P), became a global phenomenon in 2018 with his song "YELLOW," which he released with his own vocals and has garnered over 169 million views on YouTube. At the press conference, Kamiyama also spoke about the deep connections his music has with internet culture, street art, and anime.

For anime lovers, the name Yoh Kamiyama is synonymous with the unforgettable songs he has contributed to hit series. The artist is known for the emotional opening theme "Irokousui" from the Horimiya anime and the energetic track "Gunjou" from the Drifting Dragons series. He also recently cemented his success with "Endroll," which he performed for Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War, and his work on "Hoozuki" for The Demon Prince of Momochi House anime. By including these iconic songs in his performance in Manchester, the artist gave his fans an unforgettable night.

This concert once again proves the rising trajectory of Japanese artists and anime music (anisong) in the European market.
