The Chewinggum Weekend was a Japanese rock band formed in Sapporo, Japan in 1991. The band released two full-length albums and a handful of singles before disbanding in 1999. The band saw moderate success in Japan, and still draws new listeners due to bassist Jun Suzuki who moved on to join The Pillows in 1999. Guitarist Kōji Iwata went on to perform as a solo artist under the moniker "HERMIT" on Sawao Yamanaka's Deicious Label.
