About Choinure Boys The group was formed in Fukuoka, Japan in 2004 and has been performing actively at various venues and on the streets. Their musical focus is mainly American popular music in the 50s such as jazz, jive, western swing, blues, hillbilly and jug. However, their uniqueness is that they combine those styles adding a taste of Japanese music. In 2007, their first album "Swingin' And Truckin'" was released has been selling continuously. The name of the group "CHOINURE BOYS" comes from the famous character "The Soggy Bottom Boys" of the hit movie "O Brother". The Japanese word "CHOINURE" means in a bit funny way, a little wet as opposed to be soggy. So the name has a hidden meaning that they are maybe not making a crazy hit right now but really deserving it and one day they will for sure!!
