An Oricon article today, states that Kalafina and 13 other anisong artists will move starting from April 2017 to new sublabel of Sony Music Japan, called “SACRA MUSIC”, the new label is intended to expand activities overseas, such as participating in events, live performance, and music releases. The other artists that will move there are : ClariS, LiSA, EGOIST, Saka Tomohisa, Hanazawa Kana, Haruna Haruna, ELISA, GARNiDELiA, Sawano Hiroyuki [nZk], Mashiro Ayano, TrySail, PENGUIN RESEARCH.
The website of Sacra Music is here
We are really curious as to what this move will mean for Kalafina 🙂
thanks to Zenigame for the news!
PS: Sacra is supposedly pronounced “Sakura”,but due to copyright reasons they put sacra there.
That last part threw me off. I mean “Sacra” = Sakura, pretty different meanings there haha. Then again you get the feeling its mean to promote Japanese artists to worldwide audience and so ‘sakura’ is like a symbol of Japan.
