Kanami Sama (様, さま) plays along to ONE OK ROCK song, Koi N Aibou...and slays it!

[@user-hc8wc7bt1s]

Kanami beautiful guitar players😊

[@markbaker8255]

Kanami is a genius...this was child's play for her...she was falling asleep. One of the best guitarists alive today.

[@germanbustos2272]

Indeed 🍻

[@lordgalahad]

This was 2014. It was on their official channel. Because there were some doubters whether they can actually play. She uses an AddicTone guitar. For the early duration of band-maid, AddicTone was making guitars for them. All of them started with different brands Kanami: AddicTone -> PRS Miku: Rickenbacker -> Zemaitis Misa: Fender -> Black Cloud Akane: Sonor -> Tama Even Saiki switched from Sennheiser to DPA for her Microphone

[@philipcable7518]

I didn't realise Saiki swapped her mic. Thanks for the info dude!

[@tonygriffin_]

The info is much appreciated. Thanks, buddy

[@powbobs]

Akane was endorsed by Sakae Drums until they went out of business. Amazing drums. Her red and pink sparkle kit you see in many videos are Sakae Almighty Maple. She also played Canopus drums for a while. Also great drums. Saiki’s Sennheiser mic was MISA’s microphone from singing for her previous band. Miku uses it now.

[@muto4055]

@@powbobs Akane was a DJ and Miku was visiting the store?

[@jonasw3945]

It didn't have anything to do with people doubting them, most of the doubter where non japanese people not familiar with the rock scene in Japan and I doubt Band-Maid noticed them at that time especially since by that time they only performed in Japan, They just used to do covers for fun and at the same time to promote the band.

[@zinoviylubman5553]

Kanami is a guitar Queen!!!!!!

[@MrEd-qg8td]

The BEST hard rock guitarist on the planet!

[@tonygriffin_]

definitely!

[@ullischuster1263]

of course there is no best, but I agree with you))

[@randelldanner8588]

If they can play their own music they can play anything.

[@tonygriffin_]

They can outplay anyone now!

[@mechanicat23]

YESS!! Whoever found this, thank you. Kanami used to have a bunch up on KZbin before she got chosen by Miku. They all disappeared after Band Maid started getting off the ground.

[@haggaisimon7748]

She’s so cute.

[@christophermoorhead5827]

I love that when Kanami gets in the groove she does a little hop. it is so adorable. And then, when she hits the "solo" and there is a "did I get it?" Aw fuck it, moment... It's just so adorbs... One could die.

[@joeking6763]

This is Kanami practicing for fun! Yea she had to show she could play, but she plays this in her sleep. I won't repeat Nino's comments below but all the band members have done videos on their respective instrument endorsements.

[@drogonr9318]

Mincho - great guitarist, insanely great songwriter.

[@riloh58]

My guitar heart belongs to Mincho 🖤💜🤍 Such skills, so adorable.

[@LostAgain1970]

You can see that she completely grasp this song. In BAND-MAID, she turns it into the next or third level....or even forth....

[@tonygriffin_]

Yes, it's very easy for her.

[@fooglez]

Hair is flawless.

[@knightofthefivemaids]

Mincho is just a bad ass

[@hoshikazhoshi]

昔、公式がUPしてていつの間にか消えてたやつだ！ また見れて嬉しいです！

[@COTTERO]

Kanami & her AddicTone.👍

[@germanbustos2272]

She's a Queen ✨⭐✨

[@phaeron]

As if there was nothing easier for her. She could play that to you in her sleep (with all due respect to "One Ok Rock"). Still a nice way to punch the doubters all the way in the face. I bet she had some ideas during the playthrough on how to make it more interesting. 🤭🤘

[@tonygriffin_]

🎸🤘

[@triplej8666]

i mean its not incredibly difficult, shes a good player for sure, but lack the songwriting of a band like one ok rock which is why they have no hits

[@edwardbarnes3389]

No Kanami is a instrumentalist ! there is a difference ! she is the best guitarist period !

[@tanitatt]

This was back when people were questioning whether or not they actually played their own instruments so they put these out ... Akane’s drum cover is awesome and Misa’s bass cover is out there somewhere too

[@tonygriffin_]

Hmmm, may have to hunt those down!

[@tonygriffin_]

Hunted them down! Akane - kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZrOZ4h4htKLjZI . There are a few short videos of MISA and this is one - kzbin.info/www/bejne/javTo4ibobejopI

[@OhWaker]

@@tonygriffin_ The MISA one is recent. I think after the Conqueror album but before Different. The Akane one is released at around 2014. Need to keep looking for MISA ones from the same time.

[@tonygriffin_]

@@OhWaker Feel free to search and then post a link please!

[@powbobs]

@@tonygriffin_ The MISA one is recent from her Instagram.

[@rikustorm13]

This has honestly kept me from ending it all... Music truly heals :D

[@tonygriffin_]

Band-Maid's song 'About us' helped me in the same way. Hope that Life is looking better to you now.

[@rikustorm13]

​@@tonygriffin_Sorry I didn't see this reply earlier... but hey thanks :D

[@stupidthinking3905]

Beauty & the Beast 🤟🤟🤟❤️❤️❤️

[@mickyart]

So pretty, kawaii, cool and playing like it was nothing... I love this lady and her composition skills are going up the roof, after listening to Unseen World over and over as one of the best things I heard in many many years...

[@eastsixx499]

ソロの時のアヒル口が可愛い 佳子様みたい

[@tonygriffin_]

はい、かなみさんはいつも可愛くて上手です

[@tungstenwhizard4361]

She makes it look way too easy.

[@kennywilson2129]

Always enjoy anything Band-Maid! Thanks.

[@pigface5074]

Beautiful and The Beast ❤️❤️❤️ !!!

[@brucemcdonald4060]

Kanami-sama !!!! Brilliant guitar work.

[@felixbegay5938]

GORGEOUS!!!!!

[@JorgeLopez-kk8rn]

Una vez más mostrando talento

[@JuanSan66]

Always I see her face while bending at 2:14 I have to smile. That were Mincho, a Goddess in her beginning. Love for ever.

[@tonygriffin_]

Yes. She plays without any effort - this is a simple thing for Kanami.

[@curl2006]

I agree with Tony. It looks almost too easy for her.

[@leewawson344]

*AXE* *4* the #Best !!! You get 🌀 #KANAMI 🌀 *ROCKS* 🌀

[@angganugraha8613]

❤️

[@miqoto]

its her old gear :) Ruby Addictone 💛

[@Marcus_C51]

I must say I've always thought the Addictone was quite a guitar--looks and sounds great! (of course everything does in Kanami's hands!).

[@1212kome]

これを見つけて小鳩がメンバーにさそったのでしょうか。

[@xxxxyz1574]

Thx for uploading!

[@tonygriffin_]

🤘🎸

[@ullischuster1263]

Great. I love the sound of the Addictone. Too bad she doesn't use it at all anymore

[@peterlee6921]

Piece of cake.

[@tonygriffin_]

Yep. This is about as difficult for Kanami as watching her play it is for me!

[@michaelthain4488]

I hope all the detractors that doubted they could play were honorable and go and post retractions and apologies, but I somehow I doubt it.

[@weilima9316]

This is probably 6 or 7 years ago.

[@tonygriffin_]

2014, I think.

[@sansarsah2966]

I want to be her student

[@Running-withscissors]

So... that's what it would be like watching Beethoven play chopsticks I guess... :p JOKING! Dont get triggered hehe

[@tonygriffin_]

She does look extremeely relaxed, like it's literally no strain at all to do this. No triggering here!

[@glenkelley6799]

Thanks for that. That must have been a long time ago, she's not playing her PRS, 6 years ago?

[@tonygriffin_]

2014.

[@lordgalahad]

Of course this is one of the other videos from the other members. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYHKfndjo7V8irM

Yes, I'd posted the same link below, in tanitatt's comment. But thanks anyway.
