Chaba (group)
Chaba (チャバ, Chaba) was a folk rock band consisting of three members. They formed in 1996 at the Osaka University of Arts and made their big debut in 2004 and were signed to Ki/oon Records. One of their more distinctive aspects is the incorporation of the traditional Okinawan instrument, the Sanshin, into their music.
