FRIENDSHIP.

Loupx garoux

Solo project and band of Nii Mariko, who has been active since 2005 as the guitar vocalist of the three-piece rock band HOMMヨ (currently on hiatus).

Nii Mariko (Vo.&G), YURINA da GOLD DIGGER (Magic,Drums & Love/Ds.&Vo.), okan (Roy Gypsy,WAO!/Ba.&Vo.), Romantic (ex. Bakudan Johnny, betcover!!etc./... Syn.&Vo.), who started their activities at the end of 2023. Stepping away from the alternative rock they have pursued for many years, the band creates a variety of dark yet pop songs, inspired by black music and Showa-era Japanese songs that they have been familiar with since childhood, with a focus on vocals.

The band is moving forward at breakneck speed. In addition to their visual impact, their minimalist and contemporary performances feature the unique and beautiful voices of the instrumentalists. Romantic's challenging arrangements have impressed even the most discerning music enthusiasts.Nii Mariko's unique lyrics, sharpened by their experience as a writer since the band's hiatus, are also noteworthy.
