A girl group discussed their baby-related hiatus, revealing a surprising bit of information! Japanese rock band Hump Back was created in 2009. Around 2015, the group underwent line-up changes to reach its current three-piece lineup. The group signed to a label in 2016 and released its first full album in 2019.

In July 2023, the group announced they would take a hiatus as one member was pregnant but did not mention which member it was. They asked for understanding during the “unstable” time, which implied they would eventually return.
On May 16, 2024, Hump Back announced they would be making a return, revealing that not just one member was pregnant but all three! During the ten-month hiatus, each member gave birth to healthy babies, partially shown in the announcement.
