LOS ANGELES, Calif. (May 4, 2011) This summer¹s most anticipated anime,
manga and music convention AM2 is proud to welcome ³Video Games Live² artist
Icarus Kid and super ³kawaii² (cute) American J-Pop group the Ajuku Girls to

treat with such amazing US/American talent and this is just the beginning Š
we have more coming soon! So come join us and get ahead of the lines and

The Icarus Kid blasts familiar NES melodies and has been featured with the
acclaimed orchestral show ³Video Games Live,² won first place in the Seattle
Laptop Battle, and his 8-Bit roots have been turning heands in the video
game composition industry. The music is often compared with Daft Punk,
Crystal Castles and Aphex Twin.
Ajuku Girls are an American J-POP group of singers and actresses bursting
onto the scene with the release of their single TOKYO DRIFT (by #1 Japanese

fashion with JPOP moon boots, colored wigs and all out vibrance in a style
all their own. The AJUKU GIRLS just complete Songs of Love with Tori Amos
and Sara Barailles plus an appearance with Kung Fu Panda 2. Be on the
lookout for their Kung Fu Panda promo coming soon! These girls are hot like
wasabi! Be forewarned they throw love bombs.
