Before Shanadoo
Manami, Junko and Chika were known as the idol group 'Vivace' under the label Avex. There was also a forth member named Kotomi Ban but she left the 'Vivace' in 2005. The group mainly existed for promotion purposes. They released trading cards, photobooks and two songs, 'Flame Love' and 'On My Own'. These songs should remain their only ones until the girls decided to team up with Marina as the lead singer to form 'Shanadoo'.

As a note, 'Vivace' are still sort of active. Their last live performance was on 02/04/2006 during Avex' Girl's Box ~Spring Special Live~. Also, Manami, Junko and Chika are still working as a models.
