Biografía

Double are defined as 2 different bands, one from Japan, the other from Switzerland. DOUBLE (Japan) originally started with two members, sisters SACHIKO and TAKAKO. TAKAKO was born into a Niigata family as the youngest of three sisters who got along famously and were always singing together. (TAKAKO does some rare reflecting on this period in an interview on her recently released video, or DVD, "DOUBLE".) As is the case with most families, it was the oldest sibling who wielded the greatest influence on her younger sisters, SACHIKO and TAKAKO. Music was certainly no exception.

"Actually, if I hadn't seen the videos, I'm not sure whether I would've grown to like R&B at all," TAKAKO confesses. Which is why she's known as such a perfectionist when making her own videos. The premium she places on ensuring a high-quality integration of audio and visual content is evident in the aforementioned video biography, "DOUBLE." TAKAKO soon found herself listening primarily to R&B and copying to a tee the styles of her favorite performers. Her sister, SACHIKO, had developed a superb musical ear after years of studying classical piano and the two sisters later began performing covers in local Niigata nightclubs. It was here in these clubs that their real music careers began. The duo's big break arrived when they got the opportunity to
