The Indigo is a Japanese band originally composed of on vocals, on composition and arrangement, and on bass. They were first formed in 1998 and released their debut Maxi single ''Blue'' on May 24, 2000.

Takagi left the band prior to the release of their third album The Indigo have been a duo ever since. They are signed under NBCUniversal Entertainment Japan.

The Indigo's songs range from pop rock to slow ballads. Their discography shows a gradual shift from an alternative-pop rock hybrid towards a preference for ballads. Their style is also shown in their covers of various rock classics in their cover albums ''My Fair Melodies'' and ''My Fair Melodies 2''. They have also performed several songs for both the opening and ending themes for anime television series. This includes for ''Ai Yori Aoshi'', ''Under the Blue Sky'' for ''Someday's Dreamers'', ''I Do!'' for ''Ai Yori Aoshi Enishi'', and more recently, for ''Animal Yokocho''. They continued to release albums at a prodigious rate, averaging one per year, and toured Korea in late 2004 and early 2005. They also made their first appearances in the United States at Otakon 2005 in Baltimore and Anime Expo 2006 in Los Angeles. In 2007, with the release of their ''Best of The Indigo 2000-2006'' as a chance to do so, The Indigo temporarily focused on their solo projects. The duo has been idle since 2010. Taoka went on to co-host the radio program ''Discover New Zealand'' on Kiss-FM Kobe. Provided by Wikipedia
