Giring Ganesha Djumaryo (born 14 July 1983), better known as Giring Ganesha or Giring "Nidji" for his role in the band Nidji, is an Indonesian vocalist. ==Biography== Ganesha (full name Giring Ganesha Djumaryo) was born in Jakarta on 14 July 1983. His father's name was Djumaryo Imam Muhni. Giring became interested in Britpop when he was in school. In 2002, he was a founding member of the band Nidji (the name an adaptation of (), the Japanese word for rainbow) together with Muhammad Ramadista Akbar (Rama), Ariel, Muhammad Andro Regantoro (Andro) and Muhammad Adri Prakarsa (Adri). They released their first album, ''Breakthru''', in 2006. Their second album, ''Top Up'', followed in 2007. In 2008, he and his bandmates wrote "Laskar Pelangi" ("Rainbow Warriors"), the title track for the film ''Laskar Pelangi'', while in Makassar for a concert. He later told ''Rolling Stone Indonesia'' that as soon as he had finished reading Andrea Hirata's original book — the source material for the film — he knew he would write the song. Giring went on the hajj with his mother in late 2008/early 2009. That same year, Giring appeared in the music video for Chrisye's posthumous single "Lirih" ("Gentle Voice"). In 2009, Ganesha and Nidji released their third album, ''Let's Play''. The album included a song written for Chintya Riza, at the time Ganesha's girlfriend, entitled "Dosakah Aku" ("Am I Sinning"). In the same year, he provided a voice for the animated film ''Paddle Pop Kombatei the Movie'', a tie-in for the Paddle Pop ice cream marketed in Indonesia by Wall's. In an interview with ''Tempo'' magazine, he said he was nervous when providing the dubbing. He played the role of Sudja, a student of Ahmad Dahlan, in Hanung Bramantyo's biopic ''Sang Pencerah'' (''The Enlightener'') in 2010; it was his first acting role. For the role, he worked out at a gym and ate less to lose ; he said it was because there were very few large Indonesians during the Dutch colonisation of Indonesia. Giring also wrote a song for the film, titled "Allah Maha Suci" ("Allah, the All-Pure"), over a period of two days. On 22 November 2011, Giring, Agnes Monica and Afgan Syahreza sang the song "Kita Bisa" ("We Can") at the closing ceremony of the Southeast Asian Games in Palembang, South Sumatra. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Giring Ganesha」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
