May’n is one of Japan’s latest pop diva sensations.  Currently 18 years old, her wish is to sing songs that can touch everyone’s lives.  Singing since the tender age of 3, May’n topped the “Horipio – Talent Scout Caravan – Love Music – Audition” when she was 13 and came up tops from a total of 35,000 contestants. 

In 2008, she took on the role of Sheryl Nome as the diva character in the highly successful hit animation series “Macross Frontier”.  In early May 2008, her CD single release “Diamond Crevasse” topped the Japanese Oricon charts at No.3 – Her CD launch event was so successful that it became the most well attended in the history of the Japanese music scene.  Her next CD single released in August 20th 2008 “Lion”, again topped the Japanese Oricon charts at No.3 – achieving 2 consecutive single releases at No.3.

Possessing a natural talent for live shows, coupled with her unique and dynamic vocal abilities, May’n takes pride in engaging her audiences profoundly during performances.
