One Sky Music Org. is a non-profit organization founded in 2025 which dedicated to the cultural understanding and exchange through the transformative power of music. Their journey began as a small group of passionate music fans who spent countless hours waiting outside rock music venues across the US and hanging out in small live houses throughout Tokyo. During these moments, they bonded over their shared love for rock music and its profound impact on their lives. Experiencing rock music as interpreted bymusicians from Asia reignited their passion for the genre, leading to new friendships and a deeper appreciation for diverse musical traditions. Through their explorations of international music scenes, they realized the transformative power of music in bridging cultural divides and building connections among people from different backgrounds. The founders of One Sky Music created the organization to help spread this passion for music to the broader public, enabling everyone to benefit from its positive effects.
At One Sky Music, the mission is to enrich the global music community by promoting cultural understanding and appreciation through live music. The organization hosts events to introduce people to new music, creates educational content around travel, music exploration, and cultural exchange, and helps foster international connections brought about by music. By doing so, they hope to create a sense of unityand shared passion for music that transcends borders. They invite everyone to join in celebrating the universal language of music and its ability to bring people together under a single sky. This “One Sky Showcase [USA]” is their first event in the United States.
Entertainment Marketing, Inc., based in Tokyo and Los Angeles, serves as the Japanese office of One Sky Music Org. and handles all matters related to participating Japanese artists.
