Dance Man

Stage name: Dance Man (ダンス☆マン)

Also known as: Hie

Japanese musician who's basically built his entire brand around mystery. Dance Man keeps his real identity completely under wraps—he's never shown his face publicly. His signature look is instantly recognizable: massive afro wig, prominent sideburns, and dark sunglasses. He sticks to it religiously.

The secrecy extends everywhere. His CDs don't include personal details, and his official website follows the same locked-down approach. Fans have learned not to expect backstage stories or biographical nuggets from the usual places. It's part of the appeal—the music speaks for itself, and everything else stays behind the wig and shades.
