Ms.OOJA 
・Sunday, September 13, 2026, starting around 19:00

Ms.OOJA will appear as a special guest!
Born in Mie Prefecture. (Also serves as a Mie Prefecture Tourism Ambassador and a Yokkaichi City Tourism Ambassador)
On February 16, 2011, she made her major-label debut with the single “It’s OK” on Universal Sigma.
In 2012, her 5th single “Be...” was selected as the theme song for the TBS Friday night drama “Love NEET: How to Start a Forgotten Love,” starring Yukie Nakama. The song received heavy rotation on 50 TV and radio stations nationwide, topped four categories in Recochoku’s first-half 2012 rankings, and became a massive hit with over 1 million total digital downloads.

Ms.OOJA’s singing voice is described as a silky “1/f fluctuation,” a quality also found in the voices of Hikaru Utada and Hibari Misora, said to have a healing effect on listeners. With this voice, she continues to captivate audiences not only through her recordings but also in live performances.

Ms.OOJA, who is celebrating her 15th anniversary this year, has also announced that in October she will hold her largest-ever solo concert to commemorate the occasion at Osaka-jo Hall: “Ms.OOJA 15th Anniversary Live ‘Ms.OOOOOJA! ~Let’s Go See a New View~’.”
