25 years solo, new single "何があっても"
TETSUYA debuted with L'Arc-en-Ciel in 1991 and has released solo material alongside the band's activities. 2026 marks 25 years since his solo debut and 35 years since L'Arc-en-Ciel formed.
In July 2026 he released his 13th solo single, "何があっても." According to the venue's announcement, the song took roughly a decade from writing to release and centers on the idea of wanting to protect someone "no matter what happens." It serves as the starting point for this tour, which pairs the acoustic band format with the close-quarters setting of Billboard Live.
