rock. Their music blends fable-like storytelling with reflections on
overseas experiences and hometown nostalgia, creating a uniquely
free-spirited "Howan vibe." Their debut album, also titled Howan, recently
earned recognition as one of the "Top 3 original albums in November 2023"
at the NetEase Indie Music Awards, accumulating over 2 million streams
across various music platforms.

The Blue City is a project started by 4 friends who share the love for pop

& rock and anything groovy. Their music spans across genres and cultural
