Information

The grouped formed in 1990 with hopes to sound like the rock band B'z with Hamaguchi on vocals and Akata on guitar. Their first released was the album KIX-S on August 1991 and didn't release a singe until little less then a year later.

In 1997, the group changed their name to TheKIX-S and then released their two best of albums. After the last album was released, the group took a hiatus in 1998. However, the band finally split up six year later in 2004 to have each member focus more on their solo careers. Akata would go on to open a musical school in the same year. And Hamaguchi would start up her solo career under the name TSUKASA☆ over at the avex label.
