Her real name is Satou Miwa (佐藤美和). After sending a demo tape to Sony Japan in 1990, she landed a record deal and released her first single, "Heaven", in 1991.
Chara earned her nickname as a schoolchild from her teacher (charachara means "scatterbrained") and has been called such ever since. She has always been musically involved, she began composing music in her later years of elementary school and played keyboard in a band from her second year of high school.
One of the things that defines Chara's music is her singing voice. It is often described as sweet and whispering like a child's, yet forceful and sincere. Despite her very distinctive singing voice, Chara considers herself a musician first and foremost; proficient with instruments such as the piano, drums, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, synthesizer and tambourine. There are common themes to a lot of her music, including motherhood, innocence, love, beauty, and cheerfulness.
She has appeared as one of the main characters in 'Swallowtail Butterfly' movie and sang all the songs. The album 'Montage' is actually a vocal collection from this movie, that's why it was released under the name of Yen Town Band - which is a fictional band from the story. She has also starred in 'PiCNiC' where she played the mental patient Coco. She would go on to marry her co-star Asano Tadanobu (浅野忠信) in 1995. Currently, the pair have two children, a daughter Sumire (born 1995) and later a son Himi (born 1999).

Chara Lyrics
Darling Tree もう眺めなんてそう、最悪よ どっかが脱げそうよ 誰かを好きになることを 否定して埋めてしまったよ 満足した? いや、探し…
Funk I wanna go for a free falling And love Hate here You don't…
Intimacy 謳う 心は通じ合うものって 憧れてる そう、ある日 恋の迷路の崖に来た 愛に従う ねぇ、なんて言えばいいの? わかんない…
Mellow pink いつも心に通わす不器用 愛はそこではピュアだから 傷つきやすいだけなんだ 少しだけ愛してね そばにおいて 馬鹿馬鹿しいっ…
Sweet Sunshine 迷わずに 素直に言えれば いつも尊い君に対して 終わらないで愛は常に 小出しにできないよ 全部知りたいんだよ 秘密よりも…
Tiny Dancer 私が置いていく物は 小さな態度 心を揺さぶるような あなたへの愛だけ 私が置いていく物は 小さな態度 心を揺らしてしまえ…
