Lamp
Lamp (Hepburn: ランプ) is a Japanese indie pop band formed in 2000 composing of guitarist Taiyo Someya, and vocalists and multi instrumentalists Yusuke Nagai and Kaori Sakakibara.
A shared interest in 1960's American and British music inspired the trio to co-write songs together. After writing enough songs for a demo tape, they played their first show in 2001 in a small bar in Japan. In 2002 they signed a record deal in 2002 with now-defunct label Motel Bleu, and released their debut album Soyokaze Apartment Room 201 a year later.
Despite Lamp recording and releasing multiple albums throughout the decade, their popularity in their early years was restricted to Asia only, with the band exclusively performing music in Japan, China, South Korea, and Taiwan. In 2021, however, their song "Yume Utsutsu" ("Half Asleep") was used in multiple TikTok videos which went viral. Subsequently, their music received widespread popularity in the West.
