Vol. 12 Ok Go

This week, I'll introduce some artists who make enjoyable music videos. So, today's artist is OK Go! 

They are an American rock group with four members. They were five people in this group at first, but one of the members left the group in 2005. So now, the members are Damian Kulash (vocals and guitar), Tim Nordwind (bass and vocals), Dan Konopka (drum), Andy Ross (keyboards, guitar and vocals). Do you know why their name became "OK Go"? Because when one of  the members went to the art school, the teacher said "Ok, Go!".
I had never heard of them before, but when I watched the Japanese TV show "Sukkiri" (スッキリ), they featured the music video of today's song. Then I knew them for the first time.

All of their music videos are very unique and interesting. So many people watch their music videos on You Tube and they received a Grammy Award for the Best Short Form Music Video in 2007. The music video of today's song was shot in Japan with a multicopter. Riding the Honda's vehicle (UNI-CUB β) and dancing like a mass game with some Japanese cheerleaders are characteristics of this music video. So let's check their music videos! I think you will like them!
