Dancing Dolls R.
Since 2011, three teenagers from Osaka, Japan aggressively uploaded their vocal and dance covers to Nico Nico Doga and YouTube, and instantly won the fa10 million times collectively before they landed on a record contract with Sony Music in Sept, 2012.
After releasing several hit singles, three original members: Mii, Misaki, and Hono made their US performance debut as Dancing Dolls R. at Anime Expo 2016 with a rave review with their smash hit, “Ring Dong”and a cover of hyper vocaloid dance track, “Jinsei Reset Button (Life Reset Button)” that shook up the dance floor. They also surprised the audience by their incognito appearance at K-POP Dance Battle nailing the KARA moves with a jaw-dropping performance and brought them back to other Anime conventions around the US.
With their razor sharp dance moves and powerful vocal skills distinguish them from other idol groups, but still hold the J-POP essence and sensibilities, and still rooted in Otaku and Vocaloid culture, Dancing Dolls R. is definitely your newest discovery, especially if you have not seen them live.
