The single will be distributed globally by Ingrooves Music Group to music streaming services.

The announcement comes on the heels of a worldwide live reveal on November 11th in Tokyo, where the four international rock legendsannounced a series of "Live Debut" shows scheduled for early 2023 in Tokyo, New York, and Los Angeles. The group most recently added a second show at New York’s Hammerstein Ballroom and are scheduled to play Los Angeles’ Hollywood Palladium in February 2023. Tickets for all shows are on-sale now.
The idea to form THE LAST ROCKSTARS came together organically according to all members. Under the shared goal to “make the world rock,” the group have been actively collaborating on new music, with highly anticipated releases to come through 2023.
YOSHIKI said, “Because I was traveling around the world, I finished recording in Paris remotely with the US and Japan. That's why we call this the “Paris Mix”. When I composed this song, I was imagining all 4 of us together. Let's dance to this song.”THE LAST ROCKSTARS is YOSHIKI (drums and piano), HYDE(vocals), MIYAVI (guitar), and SUGIZO (guitar).
