Costa Mesa artist Tokyo Lou has fans getting his name tattooed

The first clip (about 14 seconds) is a phone video of fans comparing fresh "Tokyo Lou" tattoos on their arms. One of them says, "This is hers. So cute. This is mine." The second clip (about 38 seconds) is concert footage of a shirtless, bleached-hair performer singing into a microphone to a crowd holding up phone lights. Its audio is the live performance.

Some fans stream a song. Others get the artist's name tattooed on their arm. Costa Mesa artist Tokyo Lou (@tokyo_lou on Instagram) has the second kind.

Video shared by Juice Unlocked on Sept. 15 shows at least two fans with fresh "Tokyo Lou" tattoos on their arms, each written in loose, handwritten lettering and finished with a small heart.

Packing rooms outside Cali

It isn't only a hometown thing. According to the post, Tokyo Lou has also been packing out shows outside California.

The post's lead photo shows a performer posing in front of a crowd pressed against a barricade, with fans holding up phones and throwing up peace signs. A concert clip shows a shirtless, bleached-hair performer singing into a mic to a room lit by phone flashlights.

“This is hers. So cute. This is mine.”

Tour dates and release details for Tokyo Lou could not be confirmed at publication time. Check his Instagram for upcoming shows.
