# Standing Egg

Standing Egg (Korean: 스탠딩 에그; stylized as Standing EGG or STANDING EGG) is a South Korean indie acoustic pop band that debuted in 2010 under Von Entertainment. The band consists of three members, pseudonymously known as Egg 1, Egg 2, and Egg 3, who produce and compose the music. As they do not have a vocalist or musicians, they feature various guest artists such as Clover (guitar, vocals), Windy (vocals), Han Gyul (double bass), or Hana (djembe) for their songs and performances.

## Career

Standing Egg debuted with a self-titled EP in 2010 that consisted of three songs. The band did not promote its release, so the album reached the public through the group's Twitter, as they used the account to share their music and jokingly asked one of their followers to create a music video for one of their songs, "La La La". The follower agreed to the request and created a music video that quickly became popular and ranked on several music charts.
Their first full-length album, released in November 2010, climbed to the top of Melon Indie Music Chart, the equivalent of Billboard charts in the United States. Since then, they have consistently released an album and a few singles every year. Their latest album, Voice, along with a music video for the eponymous title track, was released in November 2016.
Standing Egg is currently one of the most well-known Korean indie musicians, and notable for their ability to rank in music charts with few to no promotions.
