1) Yae Self Introduction
~~ Songs that can be heard transcending everything... ~~

The thing that people of any time have sought after, that is music.

In the period of four years since I started singing I have met with a lot of truly great music. I became interested in being a sender of such music myself and so I started to create songs.

I want to sing about what very naturally exist in our daily lives and in creative worlds. In my musical activities, I hope that such natural feelings are expressed frankly.

I love the songs that can be heard by any kind of people, without any boundaries of nationalities or genres. Perhaps it is like the calmness and the warmness that you feel when you just happen to look up the sky.

I believe that the songs I sing, each of them, will resound in your heart honestly.
