Guitarist Matsui Ryo (38) has quit the rock band The Brilliant Green. He made the sudden announcement yesterday on the group's official website, saying only that the decision was for "personal reasons." He addressed fans, saying, "I'm proud to have been a member of The Brilliant Green. I hope you will continue to support them." The band only recently moved to the Warner Music Japan label and got back to business for the first time in two years. They released the single "Like Yesterday" in February.
Made up of Matsui, vocalist Kawase Tomoko (35) and bassist Okuda Shunsaku (38), The Brilliant Green was formed in 1995. They made their major label debut with the all-English "Bye Bye Mr. Mug" in 1997. The following year they had a breakthrough hit with "There will be love there," which was also the theme for the TBS drama series "Love Again." But between 2001 and 2007, Kawase worked more on her solo career as Tommy February6, and Matsui had a stint with his own band, Meister.
