Official Hige Dandism (Official髭男dism, 'Manly Moustache', or 'Macho Moustache'[A], stylized as Official HIGE DANdism), commonly abbreviated Higedan (ヒゲダン), is a Japanese pop rock band formed in Shimane, Japan in 2012 by Satoshi Fujihara (lead vocals, piano), Daisuke Ozasa (lead guitar, backing vocals), Makoto Narazaki (bass, saxophone, backing vocals) and Masaki Matsuura (drums, percussion, backing vocals).[1]
The band announced on March 11, 2023 that it would be on temporary hiatus while Fujihara underwent medical treatment and recovery for a vocal cord polyp.[2]
After signing a record deal with the major label Pony Canyon in 2018, Official Hige Dandism released the debut single "No Doubt", the lead single from the extended play, Stand by You EP. The following year, the band released the second single, "Pretender", which ranked at number three on the year-end chart of Billboard Japan Hot 100 in 2019. Their debut studio album Traveler was released on 9 October 2019 and reached number one on the Japan Albums Chart.
