MariMari

**MARiMARi** is a bold Liverpool-based British-Japanese pop star blending hyper-pop vibes with shimmering synths, big beats, and personal storytelling about teen angst, queerness, and femininity. She kicked off her musical journey at age 5 with a thrift-store violin, later teaching herself piano and guitar to craft covers of bands like Paramore and Bring Me The Horizon, before diving into her own earworm tracks during uni.

Her sound mixes maximalist J-pop influences from her Japan trips, edgy DIY energy from Liverpool, and tracks like "No Regrets" (about growing up closeted in a conservative home), "Itaba-Cho" (a heartfelt tribute to her late grandma), and recent releases such as **In My Mind**, **Between Us, Vol. 1**, and **Don't Panic**. Balancing gigs as a teaching assistant with her indie hustle, she's already building a fanbase with live shows and TikTok buzz, dropping bold singles like "KUROMI KISS" and EPs that feel like Charli XCX meets J-pop sparkle.
