The Beginning of Silent Siren

When Suu and Hinanchu met in photoshot for CUTiE magazine, they began to share their love about music. Then the band formed when Hinanchu invited her friends, Sogawa Ayana (Yana) and Ainyan, to meet with Suu. And with help of Naoki Kubo as additional guitar (also sound designer) at that time, Silent Siren formed. With this 5-person formation, they performed their first live in AGESTOCK 2011 in TOKYO DOME CITY HALL event. In that event, they perform in narrow stage and few audience. But they keep fight for the band.
