-BIOGRAPHY-
176BIZ (pronounced - bizu ichi nana roku) began in 2005 as Betty. The band, then, consisted of two members Yu (vo.) and Tara (ba.). Some of you may know them from their previous bands. Tara was the bassist of Panic Channel / PANIC*ch and Yu was originally the vocalist of Never Crazy. The duo's first and only maxi-single, Aka, was released on December 14, 2005.
In early 2006, Betty added 3 new members and completed their transformation by changing the band's name to 176BIZ. These new members were Kasumi (dr. -of band Gimmick), Setsuki (gt. -of band Karen), and Toki (gt. -Ex-Tsubasa of band Panic Channel). With their new members in place, 176BIZ gained a fanbase quickly and were able to premier themselves at a sold-out one man live held on March 13, 2006. Shortly after, their much acclaimed maxi-single, Shinkai ni Oboreta Sakana, was released. The regular edition of the single is available to overseas fans on cdJapan .
