Wagakki Band (和楽器バンド, wagakkibando) is a Japanese band that plays rock music with wagakki (traditional Japanese musical instruments). Their early songs were adapted from Vocaloid recordings but they have since written their own original music. Their music videos for the songs "Tengaku" (天樂) and "Senbonzakura" (千本桜) have attracted millions of views on YouTube. They have played live in Asia, Europe, and the United States.

Amy Lee posted a photo with a couple of the band members at Evanescence's Synthesis Live show in Los Angeles on September 8, 2018.
