Aimyon
Aimyon (あいみょん; born on March 6, 1995) is a Japanese singer and songwriter. Her agency is ENS Entertainment, and her label is Unborde under Warner Music Japan.
Aimyon was influenced to become a singer-songwriter, because her grandmother aspired to be a singer or actress, and her father is an audio engineer. She grew up with music and started writing songs when she was in middle school.
She began writing lyrics on her second year of middle school, and around the same time, her father gave her an electric guitar. However, it was not the acoustic guitar she wanted, so she quit after playing for less than a month. When she was in her third year of middle school, an English teacher who was an ALT (Assistant Language Teacher) left her an acoustic guitar when they left Japan. At first, she looked at an instruction book by herself and began to teach herself how to play the guitar, covering songs by Yutaka Ozaki and Spitz.
Aimyon began penning songs in her first year of high school. While she was in school, she appeared on a music program that a friend uploaded on YouTube and performed the song in public for the first time. She also made it to the final rounds of an audition that her friends had sent her application to without her knowledge.
After graduating from high school, a YouTube video of one of her performances caught the attention of her first music label, Lastrum Music Entertainment. Therefore, she has not been active on the street or at live houses.
In 2014, Aimyon was introduced by the president of her agency to Ryoma Suzuki, a representative of Unborde. However, as she wanted to "grow into an artist who will be loved for a long time rather than making a debut in a hurry", it was decided that her first release would be under an indie label as test marketing. Training including performances started. Additionally, producer Junichi Hoshino told her to make 50 songs before officially joining the agency, and she started writing songs. By the time of her debut, she had about 130 demo songs.
On February 4, 2015, she debuted as a lyricist with "Time Goes By" on Johnny's West's third single "Zundoko Paradise". She made her indie debut on March 4 with the single "Anata Kaibō Jun'aika ~Shine~" (貴方解剖純愛歌 〜死ね〜), only available at Tower Records. Its extreme lyrics became a hot topic, and although TV and radio stations refrained from broadcasting, it ranked 10 on the Oricon Indies Weekly Chart. On May 20, she released her first indie mini-album tamago, which was her first nationwide distribution release; she released her second mini-album Nikumarekko Yo ni Habakaru later in December.
On February 16, 2016, Aimyon was selected by Space Shower TV as one of ten new artists expected to break out in the new future and performed at Space Shower New Force. On April 10, she had her first live performance in front of 8,000 people at the event "Coca-Cola presents unBORDE 5th Anniversary Fes 2016" commemorating the fifth anniversary of Unborde. On November 30, she released her major label debut single "Ikite Itanda yona" under Unborde. The staff at Unborde unanimously chose this song as her debut single with the theme of a high school girl's suicide. The title song was used as the theme song for the drama Kichijōji dake ga Sumitai Machi Desuka?. Additionally, fans called November 30 "Aimyon Day" and "Iisao Day (Guitar Day)". Aimyon likes November 30 as a fateful day.
