Background

On February 21, 2017, the 19th anniversary of her debut, Misia announced on her radio show Misia Hoshizora no Radio that, starting in the summer of 2017, she would embark on the first installment of the Misia Summer Soul Jazz concert series.[4] Six concert dates were posted on her official website the following day.[5] The announcement was followed on March 1, 2017 with the opening of an official website for the tour.[6] On April 4, 2017, Misia announced a seventh date to the tour, a birthday concert exclusive to members of her fan-club, Club MSA.[7] Ticket sales for the concert tour opened to Club MSA members on April 20, 2017, and to the general public on April 29, 2017.[8]

On May 29, 2017, Misia announced that Takuya Kuroda and his collaborating musicians, also the recording members for Misia Soul Jazz Session, would be joining her on tour as her band.[9] The same day,[9] she publicized Wowow's intentions to broadcast the birthday concert on their On Demand service on August 13, 2017.[10]
