The Bowery Presents: Ichiko Aoba

Join Ichiko Aoba on an ethereal journey with her latest release, 'Luminescent Creatures'. With the power to bend space around her, Aoba pulls listeners from reality and surrounds them in the comforting fabric of her imagination.


Known for her ability to create “pockets of intimacy… that make you feel like she’s performing for you alone” (Pitchfork), Aoba draws listeners into her deeply personal cosmos. Luminescent Creatures is an expansion of the world she built in her previous effort, the critically-acclaimed album Windswept Adan (2020), which propelled Aoba’s reputation beyond her native Japan. While she sings in Japanese, her delicate voice, gentle guitar playing and orchestral expanses operate on an emotional frequency that pierce through language barriers and cultural divides.
