OKAMOTO’S is a rock band captivating fans with a sound that explodes with ’90s-born sensibilities.

The four members, who formed the band as middle school classmates, freely blend a wide range of styles—rooted in rock but spanning funk, garage, and more.

They made their major debut in 2010, and it’s well known that in March of the same year they performed at SXSW in the U.S., becoming the youngest Japanese male act to do so.

Their song chosen as the opening theme for a popular anime became a catalyst that rapidly spread their groovy appeal.

Their curiosity knows no bounds, as seen in narrative-driven works like the album “OPERA.” If you’re after a muscular band sound and grooves that make you want to dance, you should experience them at least once!
