Little Lilith is an all-female metal band from Japan, existing out of LILLY on vocals and violin, ERIKA on guitar, SHIORI on bass and YUKI on drums.
We’re pretty sure that most of you have no idea who these girls are, so please allow us to give you a short history lesson before we get to the tour information.
A brief history lesson
The group originally started activities in 2018, but the name of the project was changed to “Little Lilith” in April of 2019, followed by the release of their first album “Little Lilith” in November of the same year.
Their second album “嘘” (Uso) was released in August of 2021, and in December their genre was changed to “loud” during their first oneman live show and release of their first digital single “LadyBug”.
Continuing activities into 2022, their first demo CD “Rebuild” was released exclusively at a sponsored live event in March, followed by the release of their first EP “Graffiti” in July (for which a release tour with BRIDEAR and MAZE-BAND SET- was held in Nagoya and Osaka).
In March of 2023 the group released their second EP “STRIKE”, of which the title song was selected as the ending song for TV Asahi’s “Double Tap Mystery” in April, followed by a release tour in Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka and their second oneman live in July.

雪 (Yuki) is the owner and driving force behind Arlequin.
She originally started the project in 2009 as a photographer under the name of Arlequin Photography, but developed an interest in journalism and translation ever since. Because of these interests interviews and reviews were added to the project, until it eventually hit the limits as a "photographer" in 2021, and Arlequin Magazine was added to the mix.
雪 (Yuki) is a native Dutch speaker with a graphic design degree, which means she is also the main person behind Arlequin Creations.
After all these years, she's still the one responsible for the interviews and most of the live photography you see here at Arlequin, but the majority of reviews and behind-the-scenes work is also done by her.
The reviews she writes are from the viewing point of an overseas fan, and thus written in English before being translated to Dutch, Spanish and Japanese. In the English versions she also tries to explain the meaning behind certain kanji or song titles to the readers, but what you don't see here is that these explanations are omitted in the Japanese versions in order to appeal to these readers more.
She speaks Dutch and English on a native level, but also understands Japanese and German.
