The three musketeers of love: heavenphetamine (JP), Alas! , Bufo Alvarius

The aim of this tour is to spread our love of music while raising money for those in need. The band will only spend money on basic necessities such as food and transport. A donation box will be in place at each concert, with all funds going to charitable organisations, or directly to people in desperate need.

Evgeny, a Ukrainian, will help determine where and how donations are best allocated. We will announce where and how much money is donated as the tour progresses.

The purpose of this tour is not only money, however. We feel that collaboration between Japanese and Ukrainian artists is a special and worthwhile endeavour.

In the past, Japan has invaded other countries, in Asia and elsewhere, justifying its actions on the basis of being a "great empire". Many Japanese citizens believed the government propaganda and supported these wars, such as the invasion of the USA, while others simply didn’t care. Then, two nuclear bombs devastated Japan, and millions of people lost everything. Now, Ukraine is in a catastrophic conflict situation. From our nation's difficult history, we have learned something important about peace, about working towards a brighter future. It’s not easily explained with language, but with music, it can be felt.

We hope to communicate this message on our tour.
