Arriving late on the first day is exactly what you'd expect from Yui Hirasawa, in her first year at Sakuragoaka Girl's School. The number of clubs fighting for her to join is decidedly unexpected, and Yui has no clue which club to join: she's not very athletic and knows next to nothing about the liberal arts, but she's determined to do something this year. year. As luck would have it, she discovers a flyer for the Luz Music Club, and what she thinks will be a carefree stroll down easy street suddenly gets turned up to 11, when she discovers that in order to join, she needs to really learn to play an instrument! With energetic drummer Ritsu, additional shy bassist Mio, and piano prodigy Tsumugi, it'll be easy to get your skills up to speed before Luz Music Club gets the axe, but it may take a few licks to get these four new friends in sync and ready to rock!
