The Madman Anime Festival Melbourne or MadFest has announced another exciting international guest: Anisong artist, Luna Haruna.
Luna Haruna is one of the most popular up-and-coming Anisong (anime song) artists in Japan. Whilst attending Madman Anime Festival Melbourne, Luna will be signing autographs at the festival, as well as performing a free concert.
Luna has loved singing and watching anime since her childhood. At the 4th Animax Anisong Grand Prix (2011), Luna became a finalist, which led her to the chance of making her major-label debut. Her debut single “Sora wa takaku Kaze wa utau” (Fate/Zero 2nd season ending theme song) was produced by renowned anime song producer, Yuki Kajiura, and released in May 2012.
In August 2013, Luna released her 1st album “OVERSKY”, and she also held her solo concert at the renowned Shibuya Public Hall in December 2014.
In January 2015, she released the 7th single “Kimi Iro Signal” (TV anime “Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend” opening theme song) to be followed by her 2nd album “Candy Lips”. In this year, she held concerts at bigger venues such as Mielparque Hall (Tokyo) and Morinomiya Piloti Hall (Osaka), and both were very successful. In addition to this, she had also been an active fashion model under the “KERA” label.
Luna’s current hit songs include:
- “Overfly” – Sword Art Online (fairy dance arc) ending theme song.
- “Startear” – Sword Art Online II” ending theme song.
- “Kimi Iro Signal” – Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend opening theme song.
