Modern Choki Chokies (Twitter, YouTube channel) (often referred to as "Modachoki"), the large band fronted by singer Mari Hamada (also famous as an actress) that was active in the 90s, came back a few years ago following a long hiatus and had since performed a few shows in the Kansai area where they originally came from. And now, in 2023, they have just released a brand new song titled "Kinkan", which is their first new song in 27 years! The new song was written by keyboardist and chorist Novko Hasebe. Check out the music video teaser below, and hear the whole song on download/streaming platforms.
That's not all! Modern Choki Chokies will be playing a show in Tokyo on September 10 at Shibuya O-West (details at Tokyo Gig Guide). The show can also be viewed via online streaming (details & countdown clock) until September 17 (JST).
