Ikimonogakari is a Japanese pop-rock trio whose members first met in grade school, then later reconnected to release a string of chart-topping albums.
∙ “Hanabi,” from their 2007 major-label debut, Sakurasakumachi Monogatari, was the first in a decade-long run of more than two-dozen Top 10 entries on the Oricon Singles Chart.
∙ Their 2008 album, My Song Your Song included the hit “Blue Bird,” which served as the opening theme for the anime adaptation of the award-winning manga series Naruto.
∙ Thanks to the 2009 smash “Yell,” Hajimarinouta debuted at No. 1 on three different Oricon charts and earned Best Album honors at the Japan Record Awards.
∙ Written with the hope that it would inspire Japanese athletes, “Kazegafuiteiru” was chosen as the theme song for NHK’s broadcast of the 2012 Summer Olympics.
∙ Vocalist Kiyoe Yoshioka became the first-ever Japanese artist to perform “World in Union,” the official song of the Rugby World Cup, when the 2019 event launched in Tokyo.
Members of Ikimonogakari include, or have included, Yoshiki Mizuno.
