Japanese duo Chage & Aska returns to Shanghai
9/8/2007 10:13
Although Japanese singers Chage and Aska have long been working as solo
musicians, the duo will reunite for a Shanghai concert in November to mark the
tenth anniversary of their successful debut there.
The celebrated rock
duo Chage & Aska is scheduled to perform for free on the Shanghai Grand
Stage on November 17, Thursday's Shanghai Morning Post quotes the event's
organizer.
It will be the duo's fourth Shanghai appearance. Each of their
previous shows from 1997 to 1999 made the record in ticket-selling
history.
Both Chage and Aska will travel to Shanghai next month to
promote the concert.
Works from Chage & Aska are not new to Chinese
audience. Among those who have covered their songs are Wakin Chau, Chyi Chin,
and the late love-ballad sensation Teresa Teng.
Many hits from their
career since 1979 have also been remixed or covered by Western artists such as
Richard Marx and Boy George.
In 1996, Chage and Aska both became solo
performers, but the band continued to release music as a duo
occasionally.
