Eric Martin, the vocalist of rock band MR.BIG, known for the global hit "TO BE WITH YOU," will perform all of MR.BIG's songs with a band led by young Japanese guitarist Li-sa-X, who is said to be the disciple of MR.BIG guitarist Paul Gilbert, at a live concert hosted by NTT Docomo Studio & Live.
This event is a collaboration between Eric, who sympathizes with the philosophy of the "Voice of Youth JAPAN" (VoYJ) project, and will feature a live performance featuring songs by young Japanese artists and MR. BIG.
The "Voice of Youth JAPAN" (VoYJ) project is a young people's project, led by UNiTe at the University of Tokyo, that aims to create a safe space for young people to share their thoughts and voices in order to realize a world where "no one is left behind" through the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Eric Martin, who sympathized with this initiative, participated in the recording and released the charity single "I'll be there just for you."

Upon the release of the song, Eric Martin said powerfully, "If I can touch someone's heart with my voice, that would be the happiest thing for me. With all my love."
During his visit to Japan, he will also be performing his popular cover series "MR.VOCALIST" live for the first time in 15 years.
MR. BIG will hold their final Japan tour, "MR. BIG THE BIG FINAL! FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS," in February 2025 in Tokyo and Osaka.
