Aoi Teshima

Aoi Teshima is a Japanese singer-songwriter and voice actress whose warm, crystalline vocals have charmed listeners since her 2006 debut with Studio Ghibli’s *Tales from Earthsea*. Born in Okinawa in 1987, her music often carries a gentle, nostalgic quality, blending folk, jazz, and pop with lyrics that feel like whispered conversations with nature. Recent releases like *Mori no chiisana restaurant* and *Tadaima* showcase her knack for crafting cozy, cinematic soundscapes, while projects like *Cheek to Cheek～I Love Cinemas～* highlight her love for jazz standards and timeless melodies. Beyond music, she’s voiced characters in Ghibli films like *From Up on Poppy Hill*, weaving her storytelling magic across mediums. Whether she’s singing about Tokyo’s neon glow or Earth’s “ruriiro” (emerald-green hues), Teshima’s voice remains a comforting companion—like a favorite blanket made of sound.
