Haruichi Shindō (新藤 晴一, Shindō Haruichi, born 20 September 1974) is a Japanese musician, lyricist, composer, record producer and author who is affiliated with Amuse, Inc.[1][2] His artist name at his debut was Haruichi (ハルイチ), and he formed a band named No Score with his classmates at high school which later became Porno Graffitti.[3] Originally he was the lead vocalist, but since Akihito Okano joined, he became the lead guitarist and provided backing vocals. He is also a guitarist for THE Yatou. He was married to actress Kyōko Hasegawa from 2008 to 2021, and they have two children together.[4]
From his early debut to around 2007, the Trio, DC-30, and JCM series were used live. Currently it is mainly the combination of Old Marshall and DC-30. On the other hand, amplifier simulators such as Kemper are used as a sub.
