Hiphop/R&B-inspired girl group XG has released their first live album, XG 1st WORLD TOUR “The first HOWL” Live, on 8th August!
The album features live audio from their emotional and unforgettable concert at Tokyo Dome, which served as the grand finale of their first ever world tour, XG 1st WORLD TOUR “The first HOWL”.
Spanning nearly a year from May 2024, the tour visited 35 cities across 18 countries, delivering a total of 47 shows, most of which were sold out, demonstrating XG’s explosive global popularity. In April 2025, XG also performed at Coachella, one of the world’s largest music festivals, trending No. 2 worldwide on X and earning high praise from international media.
Their Tokyo Dome finale drew 50,000 fans, and was widely celebrated as both a triumphant homecoming and a symbolic milestone in their journey. The 13-track live album, featuring 18 songs including medleys, captures the energy, raw emotion and unforgettable atmosphere of that night. It showcases signature hits like “WOKE UP”, “SHOOTING STAR” and “LEFT RIGHT” alongside emotional highlights such as “IN THE RAIN” and “IS THIS LOVE”, which has remained on Billboard Japan’s Hot 100 for 21 consecutive weeks. Through this release, fans around the world can relive the essence of XG’s universe and the powerful bond they share with their audience.
Looking ahead, XG will headline Day 1 of a-nation 2025 on 30th August at Ajinomoto Stadium in Tokyo. This marks their first music festival appearance since Coachella, and anticipation is running high for what they will bring to the stage. Ticketing details here.
