J-pop powerhouse JO1 is headed back to Los Angeles as a headline act for Dodger’s Japanese Heritage Night on 28April, fresh off their sold-out U.S. shows and eye-catching appearance at the iHeartRadio Music Awards. The 11-member group will take the stage at The Centerfield Plaza, making history as the first Japanese idol group to represent and celebrate Japanese culture at the iconic venue.
The performance coincides with the group’s fifth anniversary and the release of their first “Best Of” album, featuring the title track ‘BE CLASSIC’, a bold reimagining of Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony. The track has toppedBillboard Japan’s Download Songs and Hot Shot Songs charts and hit #1 on Japan’s Oricon daily chart. Its music video has already racked up 26 million views, with an English version dropping the same day as their LA performance.
Formed via PRODUCE 101 JAPAN, JO1 has become a global force, amassing chart-topping hits, major awards, and a rapidly growing international fanbase. With their Dodger Stadium debut, JO1 continues to bridge cultures and take J-pop to new heights.
