With a diverse range of music, from alternative rock to electronic pop, and new wave styles, you would think that there’s something fishy about the way this Japanese band creates music. But for the band from Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan, they create music without fear of changes from the music scene.
A portmanteau of the Japanese word “sakana” (“fish”) and the English word “action”, sakanaction uses those words to reflect a wish to act quickly and lightly, like a fish in water, in regards to their music styles. With members Ichiro Yamaguchi (vocals, guitar), Motoharu Iwadera (guitar), Ami Kusakari (bass), Emi Okazaki (keyboard), and Keiichi Ejima (drums), the band reached mainstream success, with their records consistently achieving the Top 10 on Japan’s Oricon charts with songs and music videos like “アルクアラウンド (Aruku Around)”, “ルーキー (Rookie)”, and “ミュージック (Music)”.
