    Himiko was born in Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture, Japan.
    Started playing classical piano at the age of 7, as well as playing the electone and pipe organ.
    At the age of 12, she participated in the "Yamaha Electone Competition" where she performed Bach's "Toccata and Fugue in D minor" and won second prize.
    She studied composition from the age of 15 and won the Yamaha Electone Competition at the age of 16. 
    In college, she majored in music and graduated from the Music Department of Miyagi Gakuin University.
    In 1979, she performed at the "Montreux Jazz Festival" in Switzerland as a member of the "Inner Galaxy Orchestra led by Bingo Miki.
    The following year, 1980, she made her major record debut in Japan with "Don't Be Stupid," recorded with Ernie Watts (Sax).
    Since then, she released a series of original albums in the 80s and 90s.
    In 1999, she and her husband, guitarist Masatsugu Matsumoto, moved to her husband's hometown of Tottori, Japan.
    She has participated in local music activities and received the "30th Tottori City Cultural Award" in 2005.
    Unfortunately, her works were ignored by the music industry in Europe and the U.S., as she did not have the opportunity to sign release contracts in Western countries and international markets at her peak. So her releases albums remained in Japan, and unknown hidden from the rest of the world for a long time,until the advent of the Internet and media like RUclips.

      This week when it finally goes on sale. The time has come.
      However, it is a Tower Records exclusive release and can only be purchased from Tower Records Japan.
      SONY, the original distributor, is the one who should be making the move, but the label has too much dead content of great albums by many Japanese artists that are not being reprinted.
      It seems that they are no longer interested in the music and audio industries, which are no longer profitable, as they are too busy with insurance and banking businesses.
      If that is the case, I hope they will sell their dead music copyrights to other companies and release them.

    In 1979, she performed at the "Montreux Jazz Festival" in Switzerland as a member of the "Inner Galaxy Orchestra led by Bingo Miki.
    The following year, 1980, she made her major record debut in Japan with "Don't Be Stupid," recorded with Ernie Watts (Sax).
    Since then, she released a series of original albums in the 80s and 90s.
    In 1999, she and her husband, guitarist Masatsugu Matsumoto, moved to her husband's hometown of Tottori, Japan.
    She has participated in local music activities and received the "30th Tottori City Cultural Award" in 2005.
    Unfortunately, her works were ignored by the music industry in Europe and the U.S., as she did not have the opportunity to sign release contracts in Western countries and international markets at her peak, and her releases remained in Japan, buried in Japan and hidden from the rest of the world for a long time.
