MiKi MARiE

1st Album ''MiKi MARiE''

Three years after taking on the name MiKi MARiE,
I created this album while tracing my roots, piece by piece, and discovering who I truly am.

The light, the shadows - they are all part of me.

I learned to protect what should never change, while embracing the parts of myself that were ready to evolve.
This album holds everything I was able to give at that moment in my life.

Nearly two years have passed since its original release on July 15, 2024.

This album was self-produced and created one step at a time with people who are deeply important to me.
That's why I chose not to release it digitally at first.

Before putting these songs out into the world, I wanted people to hold the physical album in their hands and experience it as something real - one CD, one person at a time.

And now, I'm ready to let this album travel beyond borders.

Today, I'm taking on a new chapter: building a bridge between Japan and the Philippines, the country where I was born and where my roots began.
And next year, that journey will lead to a new challenge - creating a music festival in the Philippines.

This album was born from a journey to discover my roots.

Now, I hope it can become a bridge between those roots and the future ahead.

The parts of me that have never changed.
The parts of me that have.

I carry them all with me.

This is the first album that connects where MiKi MARiE has been with where I'm going next.

With a new sense of purpose,
I'm finally sharing ''MiKi MARiE'' with the world.
