She has written scores for famous animated works, including "Macross Plus", "Turn A Gundam", "Cowboy Bebop", "The Vision of Escaflowne", "Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex", "Wolf's Rain", and is the most trusted composer by veteran and new-wave directors such as Yoshiyuki Tomino, Shinichiro Watanabe and Shoji Kawamori. Kanno has also composed music for pop artists, the most notable being 坂本真綾 (Maaya Sakamoto) and 小泉今日子 (Kyōko Koizumi). She is also a skilled keyboardist, and is the frontwoman for シートベルツ (Seatbelts), who perform many of Kanno's compositions on the various original soundtracks for which she is responsible.

Some of her most famous soundtrack themes include "Voices" (Macross Plus), "The Real Folk Blues" (Cowboy Bebop), "Yakusoku wa Iranai" (Escaflowne), "Gravity" (Wolf's Rain), and "Inner Universe" (Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex). She was the lead member of the project band called The Seatbelts, which regrouped in the year of 2004 to compose the soundtrack of the PlayStation 2 Cowboy Bebop video game, released in Japan in 2005.

Her early career includes her part in the jazz band てつ100％. She has composed for many Koei games released during the late 1980s to early 1990s and for Napple Tale, a Dreamcast game. Due to her close involvement in the Cowboy Bebop anime, the game released by Bandai also features her work.

Apart from anime and games, Kanno also composes for live-action films and television commercials. Some popular brands she has composed for are Canon, DoCoMo, Fuji Xerox, Seven-Eleven, Microsoft, Nissan, Toyota, Shiseido, Avon, and Master Card to name a few. Grand Funk Inc. is her recording studio of choice in producing for these two media. Contributions to films started in the 90s but only since 2002 has there been a trend towards the medium. Most of the latter were shown in international film festivals.

She has attended Otakon and Anime Expo in 1999, as well as Anime Expo New York in 2002. In 2010, she made a surprise appearance at Anime Expo.

Apart from anime and games, Kanno also composes for live-action films and CMs (television advertisements or commercials) for all sorts of brands. Grand Funk Inc. is her recording studio of choice in producing for these two media. Contributions to films started in the 90s but only since 2002 has there been a trend towards the medium. Most of the latter were shown in international film festivals.
In addition to Japanese, she speaks very little English and some French, but claims that her English is "poor" and she needs translation help to converse in French.

She was married to fellow composer Hajime Mizoguchi, with whom she collaborated on the soundtracks for Please Save My Earth and The Vision of Escaflowne. They divorced in 2007.

Gabriela Robin is a pseudonym that Kanno occasionally uses when she performs vocals. For a long time, the fact that Robin and Kanno were the same person was an unproven rumor. But, on July 7, 2009, Yoko Kanno performed as Gabriela Robin on her stage, proving the rumor to be true.

Besides music, Kanno also enjoys photography and writing. She has written a number of journals for Newtype magazine of which photos for illustrations are done by Kanno herself as well, and a selection of photos taken by Kanno of her protogé and former production partner Maaya Sakamoto were featured in the special event program for Sakamoto's 2010 thirtieth birthday concert at Nippon Budokan.

In 2011, Kanno expressed her support and wishes to the victims of the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, composing a song titled "Kimi de Ite, Buji de Ite".

Best scene in the entire show easily. Faye's voice acting was intense. Her range of emotions going from angry, to sad, to just broken was crazy. You can hear the point where shes just lost hope in her voice.

@stoicbartender

4y↑10

Salamander Fry the voice acting for bebops dub is honestly unparalleled from all anime, the only ones that could come close are Baccanos dub as well as panty and stockings but bebop very much excels in every aspect and that’s why it’s been my favourite show of all time for the past 13 years, nothing is like it.

@TexasGreed

4y↑8

@BR0WN DAD I also like samurai champloos, the main cast and a few villains. Berserk did great with the main 3 Guts, Casca, and Griffith, especially Griffith. Afro Samurai as well, I didn't know Justice was fucking RON PERLMAN for years cause he did so good, such a sinister voice. But nothing tops Bebop.

@stoicbartender

4y↑5

Salamander Fry Samurai Champloo is actually my second favourite show of all time. I’d say it had the best ost of all time mainly because I’m a sucker for Nujabes but overall champloo is so good that I’d almost put it on the same level as bebop. But I connect with the cast, the atmosphere and spike a bit too much therefore nothing will ever top bebop for me

And its almost the only one I listen to anymore.

@jesseberg3271

4y↑407

The night is cold, the lights are dim, and club is dingy. The bass man plucks out the tune, as the guitarist takes a drag on his cigarette. The singer isn't old, but her face shows the miles gone by. As she sings those words, a man with wild hair and warm eyes walks into the pale light and pulls himself up to the bar. To his right, an older man with a metal arm, stares into his drink. The two don't speak, and instead settle into comfortable silence. As the song reaches its end, a regular turns from the barkeep, waving as he tightens his coat against the night air. Without a word, the young and old men rise, dropping their tabs on the bar, and following their mark out into the night...

Chills. Just chills everywhere.

Today was the day I found out, that Tsuneo Imahori is part of the SEATBELTS! He is the composer for Trigun.
Therefore one thing is true, Spike and Vash are related by the same chords of music!!!! This is truly an amazing and special thing to know now. See you on space, cowboys.

I never, in all my life, ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever EVER thought I'd hear a version of The Real Folk Blues that would ever move me as much as the first take did. This is so beautiful and touching in an entirely new way. Ohh my word </3

Thank you guys so much. You were a huge part of my childhood. This is my first hearing as it was intended. So much better. Seatbelts you guys are absolutely amazing. Now I have to do a deep dive on your discography. I am from the US. in my opinion I never got to know what any one of you were about. Thank you again seatbelts for being amazing people.
