TikTok, the short-form video platform, and audio streaming service Spotify have announced that SUPER BEAVER has been selected as the Monthly Artist for July 2026 (52nd Edition) of their joint artist support program, "Buzz Tracker."

"Buzz Tracker," a name combining "Buzz (trend)" and "Track (song/to track)," sees TikTok Japan and Spotify Japan leveraging the strengths of both platforms to jointly support one "Monthly Artist" each month. TikTok will explore the artist's appeal from multiple angles through short videos and song pages, while Spotify will deliver the appeal of their music to users via various playlists, including "Buzz Tracker."

Selected as the Monthly Artist for "Buzz Tracker" this time is the four-member rock band SUPER BEAVER, consisting of Ryuta Shibuya (Vo), Ryota Yanagisawa (Gt), Kenta Uesugi (Ba), and Hiroaki Fujiwara "38-sai" (Dr). The "Buzz Tracker" playlists on TikTok and Spotify feature songs such as the Fuji TV drama "Soccer" theme song for 2026, "Climax," which is also included in their latest album "Jinsei," as well as tracks like "Hoppokou" and "Hito to shite."

SUPER BEAVER Profile

A four-member rock band formed in Tokyo in 2005, consisting of Ryuta Shibuya (Vo), Ryota Yanagisawa (Gt), Kenta Uesugi (Ba), and Hiroaki Fujiwara "38-sai" (Dr). After their major debut in 2009, their contract ended after only two years, leading them to establish their own independent label in 2012. They continued to perform live shows diligently, and in 2018, they sold out a solo concert at the Nippon Budokan on the same day, despite being an independent act. They re-signed with a major label in 2020. Subsequently, their song "Namae wo Yobu yo" gained significant attention after being chosen as the theme song for the movie "Tokyo Revengers" (released in 2021). In 2025, celebrating their 20th anniversary, they held a solo concert at ZOZO Marine Stadium, attracting approximately 60,000 fans over two days. In 2026, they have scheduled two-day solo performances at Tokyo Dome and Kyocera Dome Osaka, respectively. Their universal lyrics, inspired by life and their band activities, and their powerful vocals that resonate with listeners' hearts, captivate many. Despite facing numerous adversities, they have meticulously confronted each challenge, establishing a musical style and visual identity that remains unaffected by trends and the times, setting them apart in the music scene. Furthermore, their high-energy live performances, which engage every audience member, are highly acclaimed and supported by people of all ages and genders.
