Jane Birkin's Special Japan Concert



Less than a month after the Great East Japan Earthquake in March, Jane Birkin decided to visit Japan for its sake in early April, despite not feeling well herself. About six months have passed since I helped gather musicians to perform with her in support of her spirit and participated as a DJ at a charity event. This time, with the same band, she will hold a one-night-only concert in Tokyo again as a send-off for her tour across the United States. Twenty years have passed since the death of her former partner, Serge Gainsbourg, and this special night will feature only songs he composed. Let's go to Yurakucho to hear her singing.
