"Stop" released on 23rd April in Japan!

About Me



I'm a singer/ songwriter, half Japanese, half New Zealander..
Currently a recording artist in Tokyo, Japan.

I write songs with a mix of Japanese/ English.
Hope you like my music!!

THE NEXT RELEASE "STOP" IN JAPAN WILL BE APRIL 23RD.. I think internationally my CD is available through amazon or CD Japan.

AND I am so sorry for friends that may have been lost!!!
This myspace page got deleted for some reason..
I don't know what happened.. but I managed to get it back and will slowly start rebuilding it again..
