Hironobu Kageyama
Hironobu Kageyama is a famous Japanese singer who has been around in the music business for over twenty years. He was born in Osaka, Japan, on February 18th, 1961 and started in the business in 1977 in the band called 'Lazy', but in 1980, they split up and he took on a solo career.

Since then, he has appeared as a singer for many television shows including: Transformers: The Headmasters (1987), _"Dragonball Z" (1989) _, Zenki (1995) and Blitzkrieg Squadron Changeman (1985).

He has performed some of the most memorable songs in anime (especially if it involves giant robots), and sentai such as the _Dragonball Z (1989)_ themes: 'Cha-La Head-Cha-La' and 'We Gotta Power'. In 1998, 'Lazy' got back together and he has since been singing with them. But also, in 2000, he formed the band, 'JAM Project' with some other musicians, such as the famous television show singer, Ichirô Mizuki.

He has been performing with both bands and pursuing his solo career to this day forth. 'Lazy' consists of Hironobu Kageyama, Akira Takasaki, Munetaka Higuchi, Sabu, and 'Shunji Hinoue'. 'JAM Project' is made up of Ichirô Mizuki, Hironobu Kageyama, Rica Matsumoto, 'Eizo Sakamoto', and 'Masaaki Endo'.

Hironobu Kageyama is a singer, but he also plays the acoustic guitar. He often performs live performances and is always welcomed for his fun-loving attitude and great music.
