Check out the interview MTV81 recently conducted with the band who uses traditional Japanese instruments along with western rock instruments, “WagakkiBand“!
They’ve really come a long way since the first feature on the blog – which was about a year ago! Not only did they exceed over 15 million views on their Senbonzakura music video, but even made an appearance in Japan Expo 2014, France, an event where 4000 fans took part.
On top of all the success, the band just released their latest DVD where two new songs and music videos are induced, “Ikusa” and “Nadeshiko Zakura“. For more info, and to watch the music video of Ikusa, visit our previous story.
