Shingo Uchida is known as one of the most skilled drummers in the scene and has played in a variety of bands including Kyoto’s dark rock band Rikugo, and has been a dear friend of ours for 20 years.

And, after 6 years of significant contribution to the band since 2017, violinist Saori Hoshino (Liv Moon, soLi, Tonerico) has found it difficult to continue her participation in BELLFAST due to her schedule, and as a replacement, she has been replaced by The band’s first member, Izumi Takeuchi, who was a member of BELLFAST from 2007 to 2012, has returned to BELLFAST for the first time in 12 years.
