Description

Jin Akanishi has been taking the U.S. by storm since his debut single "Test Drive feat. Jason Derulo" hit #1 on the iTunes Dance Chart in early November 2011 and #1 on the Japanese Oricon Chart in December. A seasoned superstar in Asia, this is a new beginning for Akanishi. The Japonicana Tour features Jin Akanishi's smooth voice, electrifying dance moves, and hit music from his debut U.S. Album, "JAPONICANA," a showcasing a slew of dynamic beats and stirring lyrics. Multiple tracks in the album were produced by Grammy Award-nominated trio, the Stereotypes, who have produced hit songs for acts such as Far East Movement and Ne-Yo. Platinum hit- maker, Static Revenger, with artist credits from Madonna to Shakira, also contributed to the album.

As a former vocalist in KAT-TUN, Jin established numerous records for the popular group. Their 11 CD singles, 4 CD albums, and 7 DVDs all reached #1 on the Japanese National Charts, and in 2009, KAT-TUN became the first artists ever to perform ten consecutive days at Tokyo Dome Stadium - one of the largest and most prestigious venues in Japan.

In Dec 2010, Jin signed a global deal with Warner Music Group, which became a catalyst for his new-found limelight in the U.S. Along with being an idolized singer and skilled dancer, Jin was also cast in a prominent role in the Hollywood film, "47 Ronin," starring Keanu Reeves, set to release Fall 2012, making him the epitome of a powerhouse trifecta for U.S. stardom.
