Miyuna (みゆな, born June 7, 2002), is a Japanese singer-songwriter. She was born in the Miyazaki Prefecture. She is signed to the record label A.S.A.B, a subsidiary of Avex.
Miyuna has familiarized herself with rock, soul and pop music since she was a child. At a young age, she listened to Western music such as Whitney Houston and Michael Jackson that her parents played in the car, and Hibari Misora, that her grandmother liked.[1]
Born with a natural husky voice, she could not sing like everyone else in elementary school music class. Because of this, she started voice training at the chorus club and a local music school.[1][2]
In junior high school she broke her hip bone during track and field club activities. During the rehabilitation, she entered a singing audition and proceeded to the national level. Although she did not win the award, she caught the eye of musicians and began to attend vocal lessons and perform at events mainly in Fukuoka.[1][2]
In the third year of junior high school, she started playing the electric-acoustic guitar.[3]
Miyuna found mainstream success with her first two singles, "Gamushara" and "Tenjou Tenge", which were used as opening and ending themes for the anime Black Clover.[4] Her third single, "Boku to Kimi no Lullaby" was used as the ending theme for Fairy Tail, and the fourth single, "Yurareru", was used as the theme song for the 2019 Japanese remake of the Korean film Blind. She continues to release demos for her songs on the independent Japanese music platform Eggs.[5]
