Zoro (ゾロ) Single and Album

ZORO : To continue after haitus

At the recently held JACK IN THE BOX on December 27th, ZORO announced their hiatus, but reasons were withheld, much like any more information on further activities.

On December 29th, during their last performance with all four members at C.C. Lemon Hall, ZORO announced that drummer Yuya and guitarist Taizo will be eventually leaving the band.

However, vocalist Ryuji and bassist Tatsuhi also made sure to announce that ZORO will not disband completely, but that the two of them will continue their activities in the future.

Amongst the sounds of sobs and crying of the audience Ryuji said: "ZORO won't break up. I and Tatsuhi will protect ZORO."
