High Up Low made a debut with their first single “High Up Low” on February 2nd 2017 from a music label called “Qwacchi-Noiz” which FEC Office, Okinawan comedy company, established in the same year. After having actively promoted with their first single for about a half year, they have announced their second single called “YUTORI” which is out July 26th.

The group’s name is becoming well-known in Okinawa, because they have appeared regularly in “Radio Dub” which is a popular radio program among Okinawan teens. As a project in the program, they were challenged to make a group of 1,000 people come to their free live concert. Having managed to have a thousand people coming to their concert, they went to all over the island of Okinawa to invite as many people as possible to come, and they spoke up to 10,000 people in total. In the live concert, they brought out their new piece “YUTORI” for the first time and it became a hot topic so that the music label decided to release the song as their 2nd single.

In the long-expected new single, Kota Kadekawa and Minato Yamashiro, the members of the group, took a charge of writing lyrics and main vocal. Yutori means a young generation educated under “pressure-free” system, and the system is now considered that it lowered children’s scholastic ability. In the song, with EDM sound, they made fun of themselves who were criticized for being “Yutori.” However, at the same time, they expressed their honest feeling that they wanted to be recognized their high value in the society. Many young generation feel empathy for the artists’ frustration toward the society. KUGANI, music creator who actively works in the Goeku Eisho project, composed music and also worked as a record producer. The members and KUGANI have started out on making a new original album together.

High Up Low consists of three comedy groups, KY Dangerous, Dekoboko Traveling, and Ku-ta-shinka, and the members also work energetically as comedians and talents. Kota Kadekawa (a member of KY Dangerous) was selected as a featured actor in a TV drama series called “Acres Ground Master,” and he received a high evaluation for his act. This series is going to be broadcasted in TV Kanagawa in this August, so that Kota Kadekawa will be recognized not only in Okinawa but also other prefectures. KY Dangerous and Dekoboko Traveling started up their YouTube channel called “KY channel.” Once they uploaded a video and tweeted about it, it was retweeted 4000~8000 times. They made full use of SNS and got their popularity among the young people. Also, Ku-ta-shinka had an audition and got a chance to appear on a nationwide comedy program on NHK. Do not take your eyes off the popular and capable young comedians!
