Pop idol unit TOKYO GIRLS’ STYLE is making an appearance and putting on their U.S. concert debut at this year’s J-Pop Summit Festival and J-Pop Live at Union Square show, and they also have something else cooking in the form of a crowd-funding campaign. The project—dubbed “Let’s All Join Hands to Make Sunflowers Bloom Girls’ Style in San Francisco”—aims to fund a special Tokyo Girls’ Style TV documentary.
The documentary, co-produced with SPACE SHOWER TV Plus, will chronicle the group’s first-ever U.S. concert and present interviews and other special appearances at the J-Pop Summit Festival.
Here’s more info from the press release:

The performance will be captured for a live music video for the documentary.
