PROFILE
Boasting a balanced twin guitar sound and a stylish musical sensibility that's dark and rich with attitude, visual-kei band Dolly lures audiences into their elaborate fairy-tale world with their fusion of catchy radiance and a darkly distorted perspective. The quintet may be new, but the musicians have gained experience and honed their skills in bands such as Clover and Luecie.

BIOGRAPHY
Formed in 2005, the group was originally composed of four members: Masa and Yuina on guitars, Hachi on bass (all ex-Luecie), plus vocalist Mitsu. Takashi, (ex-Plastic Tree) joined Dolly on drums but was eventually replaced by tsuguki (ex-Clover).

The band entered the music scene in 2005 uncharacteristically with a DVD, Screen of Indoors, which included the PV and live performance of Strawberry on the Scalp. They continued to release DVDs with their singles, establishing the importance of the visual in their work.

2006 saw the releases of three singles including the first of their "Tricolore Opera" trilogy and the band's first mini-album, Cynical Closet, which was based on the concept of a "picture book." The next year, Dolly released three singles, Tricolore Opera Suisai Paretto, Tricolore Opera Shinshoku Rozetta, and Karumezon, as well as their first full album, jewel's dRIP.

In 2008, the band's been showing no signs of slowing down. In February their single Closet Letter went on sale. The next month, they released the limited edition of their new single Hana uta at their oneman at Shibuya O-East. Now Dolly is preparing for a countrywide solo tour in May. Fans should look forward to many more releases and lives from this creative and exciting young band.
