UHNELLYS is a male-female indie duo whose distinctive sound freely traverses rock, hip-hop, and jazz, earning high praise both in Japan and abroad.

Active since the early 2000s, they’ve carved out a vigorous live presence with a unique lineup of Kim on baritone guitar and trumpet, and Midi on drums.

Their album MAWARU features collaborations with overseas artists, and they provided tracks for fashion brand RUDE GALLERY’s 2012 collection.

In 2017, they headlined an outdoor festival in New York and have performed at FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL three times, underscoring their internationally recognized talent.

Their music combines raw yet meticulously crafted grooves with socially conscious messages, making it perfect for listeners seeking genre-defying, free-spirited musical expression.
