The Japanese bassist has made a name for herself as a key member of the J-rock band Band-Maid, where her talent truly shines. Known for her standout bass performances on hits like “Puzzle” and “Secret My Lips”, she’s become a fan favorite in the rock scene. Before rising to fame, the bassist began her musical journey at just three years old, learning piano and developing a deep love for music early on. By 2008, she had joined her first band, marking the beginning of her path as a performing musician. She later attended the Tokyo School of Music, where she crossed paths with fellow band-mate Akane—a connection that would prove pivotal. It was Akane who originally invited her to join BAND-MAID as their bassist, a role she embraced and excelled in. Born and raised in Tokyo, Japan, the Japanese bassist brings both technical skill and heartfelt passion to every performance, solidifying her place in the group’s success.
She’s often recognized by her signature long, black dress, which has become a staple of her stage presence. During her performances, she can frequently be seen enjoying a glass of whiskey on the rocks, adding to her distinct and captivating persona. She carries herself with a quiet confidence, and that combination—her elegant attire and bold drink choice—makes her stand out. It’s no wonder she continues to leave such a strong impression on audiences every time she takes the stage. She really knows how to command attention, and her style, including that iconic long, black dress, plays a big part in it.
