Biography

Asmi was born in Osaka Prefecture on January 5, 2001.[2] She was interested in music from an early age, largely inspired by her older sister. In high school, she served as manager of the light music club, which had over 100 members. The club also participated in a national competition and won a prize in the chorus division.[3] After graduating from high school, she started attending a vocational school, where she furthered her skills and learned to play the guitar.[3][4]

Asmi started her music activities in 2019 with the release of her first single "Osanpo" that year.[5] The following year, she won the grand prize at Jūdai Hakusho, a Kansai-based talent search for young artists.[6] She also released her first album Bond that same year.[7]

In 2021, Asmi gained attention for her participation in the music project Maisondes. She performed the song "Yowanehaki" (ヨワネハキ) for the project, which gained popularity on TikTok and also led to her appearing on the YouTube channel The First Take.[4]

In 2022, Asmi performed a song for an anime for the first time, singing the song "Ienai" (言えない) for the television series Rent-A-Girlfriend; the song was composed by music producer MIMiNARI.[8] In 2023, she sang the song "Ai Wana Muchuu" (アイワナムチュー), which was produced by Maisondes and was used as the second opening theme to the anime series Urusei Yatsura.[9] Later that year, she sang the song "Dokimeki Diary" (ドキメキダイアリー), which is used as the opening theme to the anime series Pokémon Horizons: The Series.[10]
