mmm

**mmm** (pronounced "me-my-mo") is the solo project of Tokyo-based musician Moe Ishii, active in Japan’s indie scene since 2006. Known for her bilingual lyricism and DIY approach, she blends introspective songwriting with minimalist arrangements, often incorporating flute and home-recorded elements. Her discography includes releases like *Safe Mode* (2014) and the 2025 EP *taro*, alongside collaborations with artists such as Emerson Kitamura and Yuko Ikema. Ishii has performed internationally in countries like Korea and the U.S., and her work spans genres from lo-fi pop to experimental folk, reflecting her background in cross-cultural musical exchange.

Recent releases like *気配／予報* (2022), *Hotel Subarayashi* (specific release date unconfirmed), and *taro* (2025) showcase her continued exploration of intimate, melancholic melodies and poetic storytelling. While some listed titles (e.g., *ほーひ*, *パヌー*) lack publicly verifiable details, her Bandcamp confirms ongoing activity with a focus on small-label and independent releases.
