Holla!! It's not just one, but a group of girls this week :pimp:
A chance for CC fans to pimp this unit, oh yeah!
I'm doing a proper starting post this time because CC doesn't seem to have a lot of fans :3
CANARY CLUB
(http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k165/shirenu/canaryweek.jpg)
Canary (or Canaria) Club is a TNX unit and a part of Nice Girl Project. TNX is Tsunku's company and Nice Girl Project is TNX's equivalent to Hello! Project.
Canary Club started with 9 members, but one of them left completely (Riho Sugiura) and another quit the group to continue other activities in NGP (little Eriina).
What sets Canary Club apart from other idol groups? They have some members with cute voices, but the main vocals go for the members with lower, more mature and strong voices. Because of this their vocals sound refreshing if one is used to the high-pitched H!P stuff. They even have vibrato!
The current members are:

"Ogamana" Mana Ogawa (16), the most visible member. She has a very strong voice and releases solo material.

"Ayubee" Ayumi Takada (24 going 25), the oldest member. She is very short and a very energetic dancer. Her voice is strong and she has many lines.
