View source for NAOTO (ORANGE RANGE)

'''NAOTO''', aka Hiroyama Naoto (廣山直人) is a member of the Okinawan band [[ORANGE RANGE]]. He is the leader of the band (decided by losing a game of paper/scissors/rock) and plays guitar. Naoto formed the band originally in early 2003 with [[KATCHAN]]. Naoto has two brothers who formed the techno unit [[RYUKYUDISKO|RYUKYUDISKO]], [[Hiroyama Tetsushi|Hiroyama Tetsushi]] and [[Hitoyama Yosuke|Hitoyama Yosuke]].

In 2007, NAOTO started to release music under the name '''delofamilia'''. The album featured self-produced experimental/electronic music, with album vocals by Sony artist [[Nobuchika Eri]] and former [[BAKU|BAKU]] guitarist [[AIR|AIR]]. ''Delofamilia'' is a meaningless word coined by NAOTO, who decided to use this stage name after feeling shy for introducing himself as NAOTO.

In early December the debut delofamilia album was released, entitled [[Quiet Life (delofamilia)|quiet life]]. It debuted at #76 on Oricon's album charts. The leading track from the album was [[Pair|PAIR]], which received an animated music video.
