Bana formed in 1999 around vocalist and guitarist Ryosuke Kiyasu. Their debut album 'Shell' came out in 2003, followed by records like 'Separate' in 2005 and 'The World Is Yours' in 2007. They've worked with artists including David Sylvian and Ryuichi Sakamoto.
The band's current lineup has Kiyasu alongside Yusuke Suzuki on bass and Shingo Sekiguchi on drums. Songs like 'Shell' and 'Half Pain' give a sense of their sound, which pulls from folk, rock, and electronica without settling into one category.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
