Kana Adachi is a singer/songwriter from Gifu prefecture who made her debut back in 2017. She claimed fame back in 2014 via the LINE X SONY MUSIC audition event which Adachi ended up being a Grand Prix finalist. Throughout 2017 she worked with LINE on various projects such as commercials and variety shows, in which she had also debuted as an actress as well. In August of that year, Adachi had signed with SME Records with her debut single “Kimuchi Egaono Tsukurikata/ Kikuchi Kokoro” and has been wowing listeners through her amazing vocal and composition usage ever since.

Dabbling with the ‘girl with the guitar’ bit from time to time, Adachi brings that traditional style with a more modern flare with this cheerful style of vocal range that is rarely used to make her stand out. Tracks like “Good Day”, “No make”, “WALK”, and “Hitoyogari” brings out the best of her style to show individuality in the genre that is currently in a resurgence. While I do love a lot of her solo stuff, it has be said, her collaboration work is absolutely fantastic and brings out a side that I really like seeing. “Like it” “Wings to fly” and recently “Yurari Futari” from artists like Tani Yuki, MaRuRi, Mizuki and fellow Music Corner alum Rude α bring the best out of her and are some of the things I wish I could see more of.

Currently, Kana Adachi has seven physical singles, eight digitally released singles, and three studio albums. A fourth album, Seeker, is coming out in February of 2023. Be sure to check out her Official Website, Twitter, and Instagram along with the music video for her digital single “WALK” below!
