Pre-debut Before their major debut, the band was named Mixbox. Under that name, the girls won the grand prize at the 2007 Young People Music Festival. Later, they renamed the band Stereopony and took part at the 2008 Okinawa Sound Stage with the song "Sayonara no Kisetsu" (さよならの季節?) that was supposed to be released as their debut single on September 24, 2008 but was canceled. The band gained their first opportunity on the Japanese rock radio program School of Lock!.
Major debut They were officially announced of their major debut in June 2008. Their song "Hitohira no Hanabira" was the 17th ending theme for the anime series Bleach. The single was released on November 5, 2008. It ranked No. 25 on the Oricon weekly singles chart as well as winning second place in Rocochoku's Newcomer Competition in the same month. Their second single was "Namida no Mukou", released on February 11, 2009, which was used as the second opening theme for the second season of the Mobile Suit Gundam 00 anime series. Their third single, "I Do It", is a collaboration with fellow Sony Music Japan singer Yui, and was released on April 22, 2009. Yui's musical producer Hisashi Kondo produced and directed the single.
On March 21, 2009, the girls performed at SXSW 2009 in Austin, Texas. A few months later, Stereopony released their debut album Hydrangea ga Saiteiru. It debuted at No. 7 on the Oricon weekly album chart. The song "Seishun ni, Sono Namida ga Hitsuyou da!" from the album was featured in a Japanese Lipton iced tea TV commercial. Shortly after, the band went on their first tour, A Hydrangea Blooms. Along with the tour goods, there were 50 signed Score Band books in each venue for purchase. In August 2009, Stereopony released their fourth single "Smilife". "Smilife" was used as the theme song for the 2009 anime film Yatterman: Shin Yatter Mecha Daishūgō!
