Japanese media personality Sascha shared a backstage photo with BABYMETAL following the group’s appearance at SUMMER SONIC Tokyo on August 16, 2026.
The photograph captures a relaxed moment away from the stage after a major day for the band. BABYMETAL not only performed at the festival but also curated the special SONIC “METAL” STAGE for the Tokyo date.
