Canary Club (キャナァーリ倶楽部, Kyanāri Kurabu) is a Japanese female idol group, founded by Tsunku in 2007 within his Nice Girl Project!.[1][2]

The group debuted in 2007 with the single "SWEET & TOUGHNESS" as a nine-member group. After two albums, six singles and various line-up changes between 2007 and 2011, Canary Club was transferred to Space Craft Group in 2011 with all members transferring except for Chihira Mochida, who remained a member of the group under TNX until her departure from the label in January 2015.. Since transferring, Canary Club have released songs for the game Rhythm Heaven in 2011.

In a blog post discussing her departure, Chihara Mochida revealed that Canary Club went on hiatus in May 2012 to focus on individual activities.
