[edit] Discography

They came from a popular street musician. At first, their band name was “Lights”, but Kitagawa thought that name was hick, so they changed the name to “Yuzu”. At that time, Kitagawa was eating a Yuzu sherbet, so he named after their band name Yuzu. (Incidentally, Iwasawa was eating vanilla ice cream. Perhaps the band name might be Vanilla. Sometimes Iwasawa tells this story.) The fans of Yuzu are called “Yuzukko”.
