Music Corner Week 108: Miyuna
/Miyuna is a singer-songwriter from Miyazaki prefecture and began her career in 2018 with the debut single “Gamushara”, which was the opening for the popular anime Black Clover. Miyuna’s husky voice, versatility, and experience with the guitar gained her much attention. She performed at the FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL ‘19, YouTube included Miyuna as one of the Newcomers to watch in 2019, and was chosen by the Gibson Guitar Generation (G3) group to play an active role in their selected group of young stars under 21. Miyuna’s vocal range, ability to genre switch, and skills on the guitar have brought her to the front stage of young Reiwa female vocalists to look out for.
Miyuna’s track “CHOUDAI” is ear grabbing with its pop-EDM style beat that make you want to dance along with it. This was the second song I heard by Miyuna and it brought me back to her with its catchy chorus, composition, and unique style. “Prism” (by AmPm feat. Miyuna) was the first song I heard by her and was surprised by her vocals and AmPm does a perfect job matching the composition to suit her, letting her voice shine. Miyuna has an amazing vocal range and songs such as “Tanpopo” and “Yours and My Lullaby” show this off as they have a slower composition. Miyuna not only has a powerful range, but an ear for music as she can handle many different genres. You can hear the different styles from the songs, “Color”, “Susume”, and “Utaouyo”; all have a different style and unique flavor. Miyuna’s latest single “KANKU” has more of a dance-pop vibe in the composition but her vocals give off an soulful sound; the mixture of this combination and the music leading up to the last versus’ makes for an unforgettable track.
Currently, Miyuna has three mini albums titled reply (2020), Yurareru (2019), and Me (Eye) (2018); Eleven digital singles including the track she collaborated with AmPm on (Prism). Check out Miyuna’s official website, Twitter, Instagram, and the music video for “CHOUDAI” below!
