Before Japanese girl groups like Babymetal, Band-Maid, and Atarashii Gakko were in existence, there was Scandal – a four-member rock group that debuted in 2006. Amidst the primarily saccharine, cutesy outlook of other female idols in the Japanese music industry, this bunch of high school pals stood out with their badassery and broke all stereotypes of what a teen girl group in the scene should sound like. They play their own instruments too – with Mami on guitar, Tomomi on bass, Rina on drums, and Haruna as the lead vocalist.

The OG fans would remember the foursome for their iconic black-and-red schoolgirl-like stage outfits back in their earlier days. Now in their mid-30s, they sport a cleaned-up aesthetic alongside more masterful vocals – but with no lack of the same attitude they’ve come to be known and loved for.

Scandal is known for hits like 'Harukaze', featured in anime Bleach; 'Shunkan Sentimental' ('瞬間センチメンタル'), the soundtrack for Fullmetal Alchemist; and 'Yoake No Ryuuseigun' ('夜明けの流星群') for a Pokémon movie. As for non-anime-related tunes, 'Scandal Baby', 'Awanaitsumorino, Genkidene' ('会わないつもりの、元気でね'), and 'Departure' are among the extensive collection of power-packed earworms across their 11-album discography.

As part of their Love, Spark, Joy! Scandal Tour 2025, the J-rock quartet will be performing at The Star Theatre in Singapore on September 13, 2025, a Saturday evening. Prices for tickets start from $118, and go up to $228 for VIP packages with a meet and greet. Read on for all the details on Scandal’s concert in Singapore, including how to buy tickets, ticket prices, the opening act, seating map and more.
