Use simple music to express deep feelings, four bastard boys who shoulder beautiful ideals and never forget their innocent hearts.
The unplugged folk style highlights the most primitive emotional expression,
About the stories that you, me, and he have all experienced, blended into a song,
Wrap the unspoken tenderness and bravery into a melody with a comfortable warmth.
Ordinary and simple, yet real and natural.
The band was established on October 14, 2017, and has been running happily with everyone between dreams and reality.
