MARIA (band)
MARIA is a six-piece girl band headlined by Maiko, formerly of ZONE. Its lineup emphasizes pairs: two bassists, two guitarists, two vocalists. Maiko and Aika serve double duty as bassist/vocalists. SACCHIN, the oldest, is the leader. The band is signed to Sony Records and is managed by RunTime. The reason behind the dissolution of MARIA are the health problems of drummer TATTSU. She was diagnosed with Thoracic Outlet Syndrome after one of his arms was paralyzed. Consequently, her doctor advised her to stop tensing your arms, because their condition could only get worse, leading to various discussions between the band and staff. Although it has been suggested that the remaining members TATTSU replace by another drummer, they turned down the idea and decided to quit the band after his contract expires in April. The last concert at Akasaka BLITZ, MARIA happened on April 3, 2010.
