In 2000, Masaaki Yoshida started a band "Down by the kids" with a few friends.

But the members were not fixed.
Every time the member change, they changed the name of the band like "Pluto" or "Seneca".
While the band looking for the permanent member, they never had a show in public.
They just wrote songs, and torn them again and again until they find their purpose and originality.

In August 2002, the band had to stop because Masaaki went to USA for study.
After a year, Masaaki joined the band again.
Then they decided the name of the band as "Anchorsong" and finally stareted as 3 piece rock band .

But things didn't go well.
When they were preparing for their first performance, one of the member dropped the band suddenly
for the reason that he couldn't handle.

In July 2004, Anchorsong had their first gig as Duo at Shibuya Rock West.
But the show never succeeded.
At that time, both of them knew that they had lost something essential for the band when they become the duo.
Right after their first performance, another member dropped the band.
And then, Anchorsong started as solo project by Masaaki Yoshida.

Since Anchorsong gave the first performance as solo project on September 16th, 2004,
he has been playing at many clubs in Tokyo.
