Ninajirachi

Nina Jo Wilson (born 10 August 1999), better known by her stage name Ninajirachi, is an Australian electronic music DJ and producer from the Central Coast, New South Wales.

Her debut album, I Love My Computer, was released on 8 August 2025 via Nina Las Vegas' record label. It received critical acclaim and swiftly propelled her to national recognition. At the 2025 ARIA Music Awards, she garnered eight nominations, the most of any artist that year, and won Best Solo Artist, Breakthrough Artist, and Best Independent Release. She also won the Australian Music Prize, Breakthrough Artist of the Year for the NSW Music Prize, and Australian Album of the Year at the 2025 J Awards.

Her stage name is a combination of her first name and Jirachi, a Pokémon.

Nina Jo Wilson was born on August 10, 1999 and grew up in Kincumber, New South Wales. She played clarinet in her primary school band, which she would sometimes record playing and edit it in GarageBand. Wilson grew up listening to Kylie Minogue, as her mother was a devoted fan of the artist, and listened to the radio in the car with her father. Her favorite songs as a child were "Don't Cha" recorded by the Pussycat Dolls and "4ever" by the Veronicas. She said that the "absence of stimuli" in her small town forced her to use her imagination and be creative with music.

She attended Gosford High School. While in high school Wilson worked at Yogurtland. Wilson taught herself electronic music production as a teenager, using GarageBand and later FL Studio and Ableton. Initially, Wilson was creating music as a hobby, instead of for commercial success.

Wilson achieved breakthrough success with her 2017 single "Pure Luck" featuring Freya Staer, which received high rotation on Triple J. Wilson was a finalist in Triple J's Unearthed High competition in both 2016 and 2017. Her third career single "Warm Fire Lightning" was released in February 2018. She signed with NLV Records and released her first single on that label, "Pathetic", in August 2018.

She released her debut EP Lapland in 2019. In March 2020, Ninajirachi released "Cut the Rope", the lead single from her second EP Blumiere and first using her own vocals in the mix.

In 2021, her collaborative EP True North with Kota Banks was named the 8th best album of the year by The Atlantic.
