MANILA, Philippines — Japanese rock band Radwimps is embarking on another tour around Asia, this time making its first-ever stop in the Philippines.

Radwimps will begin its "The Way You Yawn, and the Outcry of Peace" Asia tour on the first two weekends of April in Japan after finishing in Latin America.

The Philippines will be the band's first stop in Asia outside Japan. They will be performing at the Araneta Coliseum on May 1.

The band will then proceed to Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, and finally, South Korea for the rest of May. More tour dates are expected to follow.
