## Band Description

This band is very unique as far as girl bands go, as they go for a more country style as opposed to the commonly used rock. Their band leader is American so her taste in music has influenced the rest of the band. Their name, JamboRinging, is a mix of the words “Jamboree” and “Ringing”.

## Etymology

**JamboRinging!** is a mix of the words "Jamboree" and "Ringing", as mentioned in the description above.

## Members

* **Samantha Andrews** - Sam has recently moved from America to Japan. She uses English a lot in her sentences and her Japanese is unfortunately very bad. But even though she can’t speak Japanese very well, her singing abilities are what bring people together. She’s also a freakin amazing chef and brings many fresh-baked treats to band practices. Sam also has a lot of insecurities, she considers herself really plain-looking and unattractive and struggles to try and improve her image. She thinks forming a band will improve her image.
* **Hikari Aisaki** - Hikari comes from a really big family and is often ignored as a result. Her older siblings are all amazing and have accomplished so much whereas she hasn’t. And since she’s trying so hard to be perfect, she comes off as really rude to others. The only thing she is somewhat good at is the guitar so she sees joining the band as her chance to finally feel recognized by her family members.
* **Tsubomi Oikawa** - Tsubomi is very quiet and doesn’t really like being around other people but she adores animals. Her dad is a vet so she often takes care of animals when she isn’t playing the bass. She also is very weak due to some illnesses she had as a kid and has poor stamina as a result but she wants to try and overcome it so her parents don’t have to worry about her so much.
* **Futaba Hanazono** - Futaba is something of a delinquent, she constantly pranks her classmates and ends up in trouble quite a bit. She tends to skip the classes that bore her and she teases those close to her a lot. She’s never afraid to share her opinion on something even if it’s completely rude. Despite her usually mischievous personality, Futaba finds herself in the music room at school teaching herself how to play piano, and she’s surprisingly really good.
* **Aki Kise** - Aki is generally considered to be really weird. She constantly switches friend groups at school, she never attends school events, slacks off on homework, and never takes things seriously so she’s not exactly the type of girl who would be an honors student. Turns out this is part of a persona Aki puts on at school to forget her childhood where she was a violin prodigy and was forced to do years of competition even though she didn’t want to. She hasn’t touched an instrument since childhood but soon begins playing again after a bit of encouragement from her bandmates.
