Hi! Welcome to the Clan for ORESKA Band, a teen girl sextet from Osaka, ORESKA Band is taking the Japanese pop music scene by storm with their brand of “entertainment ska rock”! ORESKA Band was formed in 2003 when middle school classmates Ikasu, Tae-san, Leader, Saki, Moriko, and Tomi got together to start a band. They started playing at local clubs and quickly built a following with their energetic live shows and colorful personalities. They started recording their own material and released their first album PENPAL in 2005 while expanding their fan base outside their hometown with live shows and appearances at local music festivals. A&R reps from record labels caught the underground vibe of the band and in 2006, the band was signed to Sony Music Japan while still in high school. From performing at local venues, ORESKA Band has gone on to gain recognition on a national level as the media began covering them. In an exceptional move for new artists, their song Hana no Ska Dance was used in a TV commercial for POCKY, a very popular Japanese candy. Even more surprisingly, the girls themselves appeared in the commercial, which was shot while they were performing on a moving train. The unique TV commercial showcasing their fresh ska-pop sound and lively personalities has gotten them into limelight. Juggling the roles of high school students and recording artists, ORESKA Band completed their debut mini album with six original tracks entitled Ore in March 2006. The band continued to record, next with trombone player/Ska legend Rico Rodriguez for his tribute session album JAPA-RICO~RICO RODRIGUEZ MEETS JAPAN on their cover of the Ska classic MONKEY MAN. In July, their debut album Ore was released and received massive critical acclaim. Following the album release, the band performed at the prestigious annual FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL attracting 1000 attendees, a record for a new artist. This August, the high-energy act released their self-titled U.S. debut album, and is now taking the west coast by storm as they join the Vans Warped Tour!
