MERRY

MERRY promoting "Crisis Moment" (2010)

MERRY (メリー) is a five member eroguro band under FREE-WILL that was formed by vocalist Gara (ex-After effect) and guitarist Yuu (ex-Shiver) in October of 2001. The group's appearance in terms of costume and make-up is usually dark with suits and smeared make-up, but they've cut down on the smeared make-up. Their style of music is very catchy ranging from hard rock to beautiful ballads, and from mix jazz to swing and rock n' roll.

Members

• Gara (ガラ) - Vocals
• Yuu (結生) - Guitar
• Kenichi (健一) - Guitar
• Tetsu (テツ) - Bass
• Nero (ネロ) - Drums
