DiamondsNakayama Kanako
Kanako Nakayama, guitarist of PRINCESS PRINCESS—the legendary band that has led Japan’s girls’ band scene—made her major-label debut in 1986 with the mini-album “Kiss de Hanzai.” In 1989, they became the first all-female band to perform at Nippon Budokan, leaving a major mark on the music world.
Influenced by Joan Jett, Nakayama combines powerful guitar playing with strong songwriting talent.
After PRINCESS PRINCESS disbanded, she pursued solo work, including the album “HOWLING,” and performs with the rock band VooDoo Hawaiians.
In November 2024, she successfully held a 60th-birthday commemorative live show, proving her rock spirit remains as fierce as ever.
Highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience the essence of powerful female rock.

Togenashi Togeari is gaining attention as a new kind of girls’ band that fuses anime and reality.
Formed through the “Girl’s Rock Audition” held in June 2021, they’re known for a powerful sound rooted in emotional rock.
After releasing their debut single in May 2023, they performed the theme song for the original anime Girls Band Cry.
While also voicing the anime’s characters, they released their first album, “Toge Ari,” earning praise for their musicality.
Their collaboration with agehasprings on songwriting and their performance style—where each of the five members’ individuality shines—has won over many fans.
Their fifth solo concert at Pacifico Yokohama in February 2025 was a huge success.
Highly recommended not only for anime fans but also for music listeners seeking authentic girls’ band sounds.
Raised in the Danjiri traditionŌe Yutaka
Hiroshi Oe was born in Kishiwada City, Osaka.
Speaking of Kishiwada, the Danjiri Festival is what it’s famous for above all, and among the somewhat rough-and-tumble men of Kishiwada, there are even those who devote their entire lives to this festival.
The piece themed around the local Kishiwada Danjiri Festival is “Danjiri Sodachi” (Raised by Danjiri).
As a festival song, it features a brisk vocal line.
The use of kobushi (ornamental vocal turns) is relatively limited, and most of the instances that do appear are sung while descending the scale, so in terms of enka technique, it can be considered on the easier side.
W●RKmillennium parade × Shiina Ringo
A track that fuses weighty beats with experimental sound.
Selected as the opening theme for the TV Tokyo anime “Hell’s Paradise,” this ambitious work was born from a collaboration between millennium parade and Ringo Sheena.
It probes deeply into the essence of “work” in contemporary society, with multilayered soundscapes and Sheena’s distinctive vocals blending beautifully.
Released as the single “W●RK / 2045” in May 2023, it has garnered high acclaim, including winning the “Best Collaboration Video” at the MVT VMAJ.
Highly recommended for strong vocalists!
