Artist Profile
krage
Born in Hokkaido to a Japanese father and a Chinese mother, she grew up surrounded by music from different cultures, which naturally drew her to the charm of music. She started singing seriously in middle school and has since performed ending themes for titles such as the drama The Hunter on the Lonely Hill, the anime Raven of the Inner Palace, Solo Leveling, and Heaven Official's Blessing: Season 2 (Japanese dub). With a focus on ballads, rock, and R&B, she sings in Japanese, Chinese, and English, expressing delicate yet intense emotions through her lyrics, all brought to life by her clear and ethereal voice.
