Tokyo's Coolest Sound

Charan-Po-Rantan is a unit formed of two sisters, singer Momo and accordionist/songwriter Koharu. Together they create a circus-like world from another time and place. They have been around since 2009 and released several albums already, though this mini-album is their major debut. Included are 3 original songs, and a cover of "su-dara bushi" (1961, Hajime Hana & The Crazy Cats).

The limited edition includes a DVD of the title song's music video and a "profile movie". HMV gives away a promo sticker with either edition.
