I Don't Like Mondays
After more than a decade into their career, Japanese pop-rock band I Don’t Like Mondays are finally making their long-awaited Singapore debut. Performing at *SCAPE for one-night-only, the quartet – comprising Yu (vocals), Choji (guitar), Kenji (bass) and Shuki (drums) – will greet fans as part of their 2026 Toxic Asia Tour. The month-long trek kicks off in Singapore, which is the band’s only Southeast Asian stop on the roster, before hitting up cities like Taipei, Hong Kong and Seoul.
I Don’t Like Monday released their first-ever project, Play, in 2014. The EP features six tracks that meld J-rock with dance-pop and funk, laying the groundwork for the group’s signature sound. In 2022, the group gained significant global recognition for their single “Paint”, which was used as the opening theme song for the popular anime, One Piece. It currently stands as their most-streamed song ever, with over 19million plays on Spotify alone. With a discography spanning six studio albums, two EPs and over 30 singles, the group have graced various international festival stages, including in Spain, Brazil, and Argentina.
