The Red Hot Chili Peppers are currently on a world tour, with two nights at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, United Kingdom. Both nights are billed with support from BABYMETAL, a Japanese metal idol band comprised of three teenage girls whose vocals are backed by heavy metal instrumentation played by the Kami Band. All between the ages of 17 and 18, the girls made their worldwide tour debut earlier this year and have made quite the impression with their “kawaii metal” or “cute metal” that mixes together J-pop idol with heavy metal.
With last night marking the first of their two nights with RHCP, the girls joined headliners for a performance of “Nobody Weird Like Me” from the band’s 1989 Mother’s Milk. Watch the full performance below, as captured by Michio SD:
