▼About SZNO
SZNO is a multidimensional artist project that operates in both the real and virtual realms. It was born from a collaboration between Bandai Namco Music Live, known for its Lantis label and expertise in producing music content like the Love Live! series, and MusicRay’n, a Sony Music Group company renowned for discovering and nurturing talent such as Sphere, TrySail, and CHiCO.
A stellar lineup of creators has come together for this project, including Jin, the creator of the Kagerou Project, and Ritao (PHASE STUDIO), who has been involved in creative work for KAF and Project SEKAI: Colorful Stage! feat. Hatsune Miku.
The official music videos for their 1st single “xx” (pronounced “Bye-Bye”), 2nd single “flag,” and 3rd single “21g” have each surpassed 1 million views, continuing their remarkable success.
