Comment from Cent Chihiro Chicchi

BiSH will disband in 2023. 

We started here at Nakano heavysick ZERO, a live house with only an 80 person capacity. We’ve been so lucky and so happy to have the support of so many people.

Thank you for loving us and giving us a place to be ourselves.

On our way to 2023, we’re going to give back to our fans with tons of exciting projects. 

Each of us has a distinct personality, and I think that BiSH was a place where we could each be ourselves without restraint.

We promise to make 2022 our best year ever. Before we hit the finish line, there’s so much we want to do!

We hope that we can properly convey our gratitude and love during our live performances. Everyone, come out and party with us until the end!
