Charan-Po-Rantan are an "alternative chanson" sister unit comprised of Momo on vocal, and her older sister Koharu on the accordion.
Their music is an electric melting pot of French chanson, gypsy music, Klezmer, retro 50s-60s J-pop with a pinch of Russian melancholy, all mixed together with a modern twist. Lyrics are dripped with wit and black humor, an exact opposite and surprising contrast to their colorful, eye-catching outfits (which are all designed by Koharu, and handmade by the sisters' mother and grandmother).
Since the duo's formation in 2009, they have performed anywhere
from the street to the legendary Nippon Budokan, to gigs in Canada, Taiwan, SXSW and twice at Japan's famed Fuji Rock Festival, even being named as one of the best acts of the festival. The pair also famously rejected an invitation from Pink Floyd's, David Gilmore to perform together (mainly out of young ignorance at the time), and are also the first Japanese artist to be followed on Twitter by the service's founder, Jack Dorsey (for whom they serenaded at a private party for Dorsey in Tokyo). In July 2014, Charan-Po-Rantan made a surprising major label debut from Avex Japan, and have continued to charm fans at not only their performances but also through mass media exposure on educational programs on NHK and their own radio show on a major FM station.
