Dragon Pony “First solo concert=‘A place for harmony’ looking forward to it, confident in live performance”

The band Dragon Pony asked for anticipation for their first solo concert.

On the 19th at 2PM, at the Seoul Yes24 Wonderlock Hall in Seodaemun-gu, Seoul, Pyeon Seong-hyeon said at the second mini-album ‘Not Out’ release commemorative showcase, “We are also holding a solo concert this time. If the goal of the last ‘Pop-up’ concert was to make ourselves known, we are working hard to create a place for harmony where young people can come and have fun together, jumping and shouting like crazy”.

Dragon Pony will be holding their first solo concert in Seoul on May 3rd and 4th, and in Taipei on May 23rd and 24th.

Ahn Tae-gyu said, “We are preparing hard. You can listen to all the songs on the new album live, and we are also preparing and rearranging previously released songs into versions that can only be heard at this concert. We also plan to show you a new side of ourselves by playing instruments that we don‘t usually play,“ he said. ”As a band, we are confident in our live performances. I think you’ll fall for us when you see our stage. Please look forward to it a lot.“

Dragon Pony, who debuted in September of last year and have gained various experiences by performing on various festival stages, also promoted their comeback with a festival concept. Regarding this, Ahn Tae-gyu said, ”I often imagine ourselves becoming the headliner at a festival someday. It started with the thought, ‘What if we created our own festival and became the headliner?’ Festival immersion is the key to creating a festival with the ‘embracing (fandom)’, so I thought it would be fun to do so, so we carried out a promotional format where we created the festival together,“ he said, expressing his determination by saying, ”I will work hard, dreaming of the day when I can stand as a headliner at a festival on a night with stars and the moon.“

‘Not Out’ is Dragonpony‘s new album, released approximately six months after their debut album, their first EP, ‘POP UP’, was released in September of last year. Each track is Dragonpony’s autobiographical narrative and a cross-section of their imperfect youth, and just like their previous album, the four members served as main producers for this album as well, leading the writing, composing, and arranging of all the songs. A total of five tracks are included, including the title track of the same name, ‘Not Out’. Released today (the 19th) at 6 PM through various music sites.
