Midori
Midori (ミドリ) was a Japanese punk jazz band. They were founded in Osaka in 2003 by former members of the noise and punk rock band Usagi (うさぎ), Mariko Gotō and Yoshitaka Kozeni. Their final lineup featured Gotō on vocals and guitar, Kozeni on drums, Keigo Iwami on bass, and Hajime on keyboard.
Gotō often wore school uniforms while performing, and would climb speakers and crowd surf. The band initially formed to play covers of kayōkyoku, but decided they weren't talented enough, and began to write their own songs. As they developed, their influences included Italian prog, Kodō, the J-rock band Judy & Mary, and Janis Joplin.
Their disbandment was publicly announced by Gotō on December 25, 2010, with their last show, titled "Sayonara, Gotō-san", played on December 28.
Midori released three albums, three extended plays, and two demos.
