So Nice

An amateur city pop band, formed from members of the Folk Music Club at the Nihon University College of Arts in 1976; they mainly performed covers of songs by Sugar Babe and [a119485]. Upon the members' graduation from the university in 1979, they issued their lone full-length album, Love, comprised of fully original material, in an extremely limited private press limited to 200 copies. The album was rediscovered in 2007, and the renewed interest in the group among city pop fans led to the album being reissued on CD in 2011, thus introducing their work to a much wider audience; the original members subsequently reunited, performing several live shows and incorporating some newly written songs into their repertoire.
