Profile
As you might be able to guess, 12 Girls Band consists of one dozen young women, all in their twenties.They all play exotic and ancient Chinese musical instruments like the pipa and erhus. At first it may seem a bit strange, it is said that the moment they start to play, it becomes obvious that the members of the Twelve Girls Band are among the most gifted musicians in the world. Coming from the Peoples Republic of China, the Twelve Girls Band is one of the countrys most popular ensembles.
Their album "Beautiful Energy", sold more than 2 million copies in Japan alone. Their second album "Shining Energy" went platinum in just a couple of months. So popular that the groups latest concert tour in Japan sold out in less than ten minutes. They star in ads and magazines all over Japan while surprisingly, they have little popularity in their native country.

My Thoughts
The 12 Girls Band is quite talented. Their songs combine a variety of traditional asian themes, modern melodies, and traditional instruments. Each song is unique and likeable for both young and old generations. One of my favorite songs is
Flow of the River. It has a beautiful melody to it as you will hear soon. Enjoy the samples :)
