Kariyushi 58 / 3:15 p.m. –
A four-member band formed in Okinawa in April 2005. They debuted in February 2006 with the mini-album "Koibito yo".
Their sound, based on rock but continuously evolving beyond genres, and lyrics woven with gentle and unpretentious words resonate with listeners’ lives, crossing generations and continuing to be loved.
The song "Anma," which straightforwardly expresses gratitude to mothers, resonated with many and won the Japan Cable Awards' Newcomer Award.
In February 2026, they will celebrate their 20th debut anniversary, marking the milestone year with various commemorative projects, starting with the band's first tribute album release and a Zepp joint tour, expressing their gratitude so far.
They deliver their unique and unparalleled "Island Songs," born and raised in Okinawa, to audiences nationwide.
