The music unit started when Tsumugishachi, who was spinning stories every day, met the sound creator Maon Kushita. The unit name “Kimi no ne” means “I want to grow the roots of music together with you.”
She will debut with MAGES. in the spring of 2023 with “Aimai Hello”. As Kuge Maon continues her musical activities by creating songs based on the stories written by Tsumugishachi, the participation of up-and-coming female violinist Otani Mai is decided and the axis of the sound is also decided. Kuge Maon creates songs using various techniques based on the diverse stories overflowing from Tsumugishachi, and Otani Mai’s violin flows freely and intertwines with Tsumugishachi’s lovely and emotional vocals. On Kimi no Ne’s website, the story of Tsumugishachi, which is the starting point of the song production, is being published as a fantasy story. After being selected as “AWA’s Artist to Watch in 2024”, she released “Laid Back Journey” (the opening theme song for the anime, “Laid Back Camp SEASON 3”) in April. We are looking forward to her future activities.
