who are kidorikko?

kidorikko (きどりっこ) were a japanese new wave band formed in 1985 and they were active from then til 1991. they perfomed live for the first time in february 1985, and released their first casette album later that year. ( C'est L'elegance na Tanoshimi? )

i have been a fan of them for around 2 years now, and i cannot get enough of their music. it is so fun and playful and weird and wonderful, i love it so much.

i have made this shrine specifically to hopefully get more people into this band!!
