Clammbon (クラムボン Kuramubon?) is a Japanese musical trio, consisting of vocalist/keyboardist Ikuko Harada, bassist Mito and drummer Itou Daisuke. The group, originally formed in 1996 when the three were students at SHOBI College of Music , made their major label debut on Warner Music Japan three years later. Their music is characterized by their quirky sound combining jazzy chord progressions with J-pop and electronica influences.
The name Clammbon is taken from a fictional character in a short story by Kenji Miyazawa.
