[OtoROCK] Shinkan


Shinkan, which literally means "new member" in Japanese, is an all-Pinoy band whose members aspire to bring the best J-music performance to the otaku community. The band started with a group of friends who share their common interests in Japanese Anime, and eventually appreciating J-pop and J-rock at their fullest.

Before Shinkan, the band was grouped under another band, Photosynthesis, within the same group of friends. In addition, the band members had their own separate exposures outside the group.

Formed in August 2011.The band had their debut at the battle of the bands for Asian Pop Expo October last year. Also, they have participated in events and productions such as Revotaku and Beyond the Music.

The drummer, Anjo, is currently working in a Japanese company and is studying Japanese language as part of his daily work. Ivory & Icel (vocalist & bassist) have basic Japanese knowledge and have been participating in Anime-related events (such as cosplays and singing contests) since 2004 Jojo & Marlo, the guitarists, have been the music expert of the group and have been a part of different bands playing various genres years before Shinkan was formed.
