About Kishidan

Formed in 1996 by the three founding members in Kisarazu, an industrial suburb of Tokyo, their music is a blend of everything from punk to disco and tends to defy classification. The original lineup consisted of Ayanokouji Shou (Show) on vocals and guitar, Saotome Hikaru (Hikaru) on bass and Shiratori Yukinojo (Yukki) on drums. They were soon joined by Hoshi Grandmarnier (Ranma) on guitar, then Saionji Hitomi (Tommy) also on guitar, at which point Show dropped his role of guitarist. With the final addition of Shiratori Shouchikubai (Matsu) as bassist, Hikaru developed his current role of dancer and the lineup of Kishidan that still exists today was complete. The band professes to a Peter Pan complex and all claim to be eternal teenagers. Kishidan is famed for their extraordinary performances, frequently including both musical and non-musical solo performances by the members such as juggling, swordfighting and Elvis impersonations. In early 2002, Kishidan appeared as themselves in episode 7 of the jdorama Kisarazu Cat's Eye and in 2003 in the Kisarazu Cat's Eye movie Nihon Series.
