チキンシャック
Chicken Shack is a Japanese jazz fusion band not to be mistaken with the British Blues band of the same name.
The band were initially active between 1985 to 1995, when Junji Yamagishi moved to the US, which followed with a band hiatus, while each individual member stayed active on their own.
After many in the music industry, as well as fans, asked for a reunion during their hiatus, they got together again in 2012 for a one time performance, however later decided to continue and started releasing new music again in 2015.
