Acid Black Cherry


We speak of Acid Black Cherry, a group that I follow for a long time and who places among my absolute favorites.

Acid Black Cherry is the solo project of Japanese musician yasu, formed in 2007 after his previous band Janne Da Arc announced an indefinite hiatus. This project's name is often seen shortened to A.B.C..

Yasu grew up listening to Japanese rock and pop music. The lyrics he writes are in natural and simple Japanese with realistic expressions that immediately evoke emotions in the listener.
The unique lyrical arrangements of his songs set to original melodies highlight his individualistic style of singing and clear high tone of voice. This hasn’t changed since the days he became Janne Da Arc’s vocalist, and remains the ultimate and unchanged expression of all his potential.


Yasu has the abilities of a composer who can express both intense emotions and softer pop elements through his music, and of a music producer who personally oversees the mixing and mastering of music for all the original songs. While his songs and live music performances serve as wonderful entertainment, they also express human feelings?which is what Acid Black Cherry is all about.

Those who are touched by Acid Black Cherry will sense this unpretentious humane, quality, and will keenly feel the "life" that he tries to convey through Acid Black Cherry.


Acid Black Cherry began performing in the summer of 2007. He performed virtually “secretly,” opening for other acts at small venues?an unheard of practice for an artist of his stature?at 15 locations nationwide between May 6 and June 10, 2007.
The finale of that tour was an unannounced live performance held outside Shinjuku Station in Tokyo. The performance attracted some 5,000 people and had to be suspended after only two songs ("Black Cherry" and "Spell Magic") because of orders from the police.
On July 18 of the same year, yasu made a major debut with his first single "Spell Magic".

After being released from A4, he signed onto M Boat, a former sister company to YG Entertainment. He underwent a few years of vocal training under the label and released his first solo album Like A Movie in 2002.
