Tokyo Jihen (東京事変)
Tokyo Jihen (東京事変)is a Japanese band created by Shiina Ringo after leaving her solo career. The band's debut single Gunjo Biyori was released in September 2004. Tokyo Jihen, officially translated as Tokyo Incidents. The personels of tokyo jihen are Mikio Hirama (guitar), Seiji Kameda (bass), Masayuki Hiizumi (keyboards), and Toshiki Hata (drums).
Already a force to be reckoned with at the time of her solo debut, Shena quickly matured into one of Japan's most iconoclastic and creative artists, the first stage of her solo career culminating in the landmark Karuki Zamen Kuri no Hana.This tour band was first introduced as Tokyo Jihen during her Sugoroku Ecstasy tour.
In July 2005, keyboardist H zed M and guitarist Hirama Mikio left Tokyo Incidents. HZM returned to his duties as pianist for PE'Z and Hirama returned to his solo career. In September 2005, keyboardist Izawa Ichiyou and guitarist Ukigumo joined Tokyo Incidents.As hinted by its name, the band has a running theme modeled on '60s Japanese pulp fiction.
