Kanon (bassist)

Kanon (カノン) is the bassist of the visual kei rock band An Cafe (アンティック-珈琲店-). After the band went on an hiatus 2010, he started his own label, StudioBlue3[1] and created a cell phone game called Pinky☆Distortion.[2] He also formed a duo with singer and cellist Kanon Wakeshima known as KanonXKanon in 2010.[3]

An Cafe

In 2003, he met vocalist Miku and guitarist Bou on the internet and they started a band together, called An Cafe. Teruki, the drummer, later joined after quitting Feathers-Blue. In 2007, Bou quit An Cafe, and Takuya and Yuuki joined. In 2009, the band decided to go on an indefinite hiatus, and on the 4th of January they performed their last concert at the Nippon Budokan, in Tokyo. Almost all of them started new projects, Kanon as well. He had already begun to make a cell phone game, called Pinky☆Distortion. An Cafe did 2013 come back from the hiatus and is again on the top on the list, and Kanon is of course with them.

Studio Blue 3

Kanon has always been interested in video games and anime, so it felt natural for him to make one of his own when An Cafe went on a hiatus. He said that he couldn't just sit around and wait for An Cafe to return, and he wanted to continue doing music. It has always been his dream, and he loves to do it.[4]
