mika and bob met and started as a duo in spring of 2007. using a combination of songs composed individually and cooperatively they played a number of acoustic sets at picnics, art installations and clubs. Upon hearing band friend, Ryu’s attempt at an english description of his karaoke performance of a certain Who song, the band name ice cream shout was born.
early in 2008 mika and bob, eschewing the typical remix, contributed a cover version of the Sound of Arrows’ Danger to their Labrador Records debut single.|The remix was later used in the American TV show Gossip Girl. Soon after, friends fumi and jun joined the band transforming the once duo into a full-on band, and their previously twee sound into a broader, more dynamic pop sound. the recent addition of chris on guitar further increased the bands live presence.
