Information

SHANADOO is an all female member group made up four young Japanese women from the PLATINUM PRODUCTION agency. Chika, Junko, and Manami have worked together in the past as part of avex trax's promotional group, vivace. vivace's works include promotional work as race queens, bikini pinup modeling, and even a few eurobeat style recordings for various avex music compilations such as Girl's BOX. Marina was later added to the group as lead vocalist once the project went into production with noted German music producer, David Brandes, at the helm. Brandes' production works include numerous international hits with acts such as E-ROTIC, Bad Boys Blue, and Vanilla Ninja.

Released on June 16, 2006 through one of Brandes' record labels, ICEZONE MUSIC, SHANADOO's first single, King Kong, a cover of E-ROTIC's 2000 work of the same name, later popularized in 2005 by HINOI team in Japan, was met with great success. SHANADOO's works were exclusive to Germany and other European markets, such as Austria, until December of 2006, when avex trax announced that a then untitled debut album would be released on February 28, 2007 in Japan. In January of 2007, it was announced by ICEZONE MUSIC that SHANADOO's fourth single, to be released on March 09, 2007 in Germany, would be original content instead of a Japanese cover of E-ROTIC. In September - October, Shanadoo's take on aneka's "JAPANESE BOY" was postponed twice due to troubles getting advertising on Television in Germany. It also took SHANADOO on a new turn, on covering 80's music instead of E-rotic. SHANADOOS's next single "THINK ABOUT" will be released on the same day as their newest and second album "THE SYMBOL".

In 2008, rumour spread that SHANADOO's german record label ICEZONE MUSIC had become bankrupt and could no longer support the group's releases in germany (also having a third album planned for a 2008 release). The group's official Myspace was closed-down and the girls returned to Japan to pursue their career under avex trax. Clothing brand KIKS TOKYO began a campaign using SHANADOO as models for limited edition T-Shirts (they use other female gravue models for publicity).

In 2009, SHANADOO continue their collaboration with KIKS TOKYO and head to Australia to perform for a special event in Sydney. Their music career also continues regularly performing a smaller events along side other popular Japanese singers and groups such as cosmeticROBOT and KALAFINA. In July of 2009, Shanadoo announced on their new Official MySpace page, that they are in the middle of producing a tokyo/club style dance album with various house/dance/club music producers. On the MySpace page, the girls released a preview of a new song that will appear on the album called "LOVE SPACE SHIP". The girls are moving into Electronic/Dance style music (they oricially release European Dance music covers while popular in Germany.
