A Japanese singer-songwriter whose work spans folk, electronic, and experimental sounds since the early 2000s.
Momoi's music matters because it quietly defies easy categorization. Her 2007 performance at the Tokyo Gay and Lesbian Festival, which drew conservative criticism, suggests an artist willing to stand where she wants to stand.
She started releasing music in the early 2000s with her debut album 'Encore.' Since then, she's put out albums like 2005's 'Hanataba to Knife' and 2013's 'Kono Sekai no Katasumi de,' while collaborating with musicians including Ryuichi Sakamoto and Cornelius.
