Soldier GirlsFERN PLANET
FERN PLANET was formed in 2017 by SERINA on guitar and vocals and Meiko Yamaguchi on bass and backing vocals.
Haruki Mizuguchi joined once but later left, and the band continued as a duo.
The tight, low register of SERINA’s voice and the beauty of her high tones make for an addictive harmony.
Their rock ’n’ roll sound and poised presence are seriously cool, too.
Although they went on hiatus in December 2019, it seems they’ll continue their musical activities, so here’s hoping they make a comeback.

Their musicality, born from a distinctive lineup of vocals, synthesizer, bass, and drums, is highly unique.
“you may crawl” is a work packed with their signature style.
