Plenty (stylized as plenty) was a Japanese indie rock band formed in Ibaraki, 2004. The band was previously signed to the Headphone Music Label. The band officially disbanded in 2017.^[1]

Plenty was formed in 2004 in Ibaraki Prefecture by guitarist Fumiya Enuma, bassist Noriaki Nitta, drummer Hiroki Yoshioka, and a female schoolmate as the vocalist. However, the female schoolmate left the band upon graduating junior high school, leaving Enuma as the main vocalist.^[1][2]

In 2008, the band relocated to Tokyo where drummer Yoshioka's parents' home became their main practice spot. In August, the band began performing in live houses and made their first public appearance at Rockin'On Inc.'s "Countdown Japan 08/09". Plenty debuted their first album "Haikei. Minasama" in October 2009 and held their first nationwide tour in January 2010.

On July 30, 2011, the band's drummer, Yoshioka, announced his withdrawal from Plenty.^[3] In August 2014, new drummer Itta Nakamura joined the band as a formal member.

The band gets their name from a parfait shop in Chōshi, Chiba.^[2]

In 2017 it was announced that they will embark on a one-man tour, titled "plenty Last Tour Aoki Hibi", starting in June. Following this, in September, they plan to disband officially.

After plenty Fumiya Enuma started a solo career in 2018 with several concerts, tours and releases. His first one-man show took place at LIQUIDROOM in September 2018. His first album "#1" has been released on November 7, 2018. His second album "それは流線型" followed on November 6, 2019. On February 26, 2020, he released a remix album called "#1 -another dimension-". Unlike plenty his music can be described as mostly instrumental, experimental, minimalist and atmospheric ambient music. In May 2023 he founded the band DOGADOGA (also known as ドガ) with other musicians. The band mixes various genres like Punk, Dub, Funk, Latin, Jazz and others. The original line up included former andymori members Hiroshi Fujiwara (on bass guitar) and Kenji Okayama (on percussion, tambourine, cow bell and congas). The latter however left the band in June 2024.

Drummer Itta Nakamura moved to Berlin shortly after the disbandment. He has continued his career as a drummer and has released a lot of music through Bandcamp. His projects include: "Itta Nakamura & João Clemente", their improvisational project "Profound Whatever", "Street Fight" where André Pontífice joins them, "Bending bodies" and "Novatron", an improvisational project with Tatsumi Ryusui on guitar. All of his projects influenced by noise rock, drone, hardcore, and ambient.
