Chikako Watanabe(Vocal) and Shigeo Tamaru(Guitar/Producer) came together to form NaNa in 1996. NaNa's chief goal was to create high quality demo tapes that would showcase their music to the world market.

In September of the same year NaNa signed a Japanese distribution contract with gut bounce,the Indies label created through a collaboration between Tower Records and For Life's Gut Label. Then they started recording their first maxi single.

NaNa went to the U.S. and worked with the world famous mastering engineer Ted Jensen who is well known for his work with artists like Garbage, Lenny Kravitz, Pat Metheny, and Madonna. Their work was highly praised.

Helloooo Tokyo !!
Thank you so much Chikako & Shigeo!! I love this dedication :)
Guess what? First i celebrated my bd at work. The team is so cheerful (sometimes crazy lol, perfect for me). They like to tell me that i should take some break times but can't i am just a workaholic bee :)
Second thing, on Oct 8 i called up my malay bro and learnt that he was a proud father of a sweet little girl. I was so deeply moved, i am auntie now ah. Packaging her first french gift for saturday.
I'm back home late (as almost everyday) but i am ok, changing my life and paint it with some unknown colours. Sometimes it looks a little messy but i know how to tidy it :)
How are you?

Thank you so much again!!!
