The Kyoto-based all-girl trio were originally comprised of drummer Green Reo and bassists Red Ariko and Blue Yukari, also a member of Limited Express (has gone?). They released a clutch of mini-albums called Red and Blue on Seiichi Yamamoto's label Ummo Records before their full-length debut Gorgeous on Tzadik in 2005. This was followed by another mini-album entitled New-Hao! in 2006, in which the trio abandoned their bass-bass-drums set-up for a keyboard-driven pop direction.
In 2007, drummer Reo left the band and has since been active in ULTRA jr. Now reduced to a duo, Ni-Hao! are on an extended sabbatical while Yukari raises her new-born son.

Ni-Hao! Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Ang hiwaga sa ilalim ng iyong karilagan
Aral na mula sayo, lagi kong tatandaan
Sumisikat din ang araw pagkatapos ng ulan
Kahit langit ang pumigil satin
Mananatili kang mahalaga para sa akin
Di aalis sa iyong tabi kahit na masakit
di bale na kung masakit
Kaya kahit ano pa man ang ating hahantungan
Ako pa rin ito na pilit
Ka pa ring hahandugan ng
Awit kahit di makikinig sa akin
Luha kahit pa sabihin mong wala
Ka nang pakialam at
Patuloy na magbabakasakaling balang araw
Ay kayaning bumitaw kahit ngayo’y malabo pa
Sa langit ang ako ay pagbuksan
Pwede ba kong pagbigyan
Mahawakan ang iyong kamay kahit
Sandali na lang
