Born in November 8th, 1988, from Shizuoka prefecture.
After moving to Tokyo at the age of 15, these twin sistersʼ Japanʼs pop-culture mecca of Harajuku became their ground zero. After landing a shoot on an aomoji-style magazine, they quickly garnered a fan base that went on to replicate their unique way of dress and hair styling, which led them to become Harajuku superstar models. The “AYA AMI BOOK” (Shufuno Tomosha), released in Jul. 2010, sold over 40,000 copies. The twins went on to appear on the cover of NYLON magazine, and even acquired a column in the same publication. They are now featured in magazines of various fashion genres. Since their modeling career took off, theyʼve also become the concept producers behind apparel brand “jouetie,” which has become popular not only in Japan but across Asia. In 2013, they embarked on a music career landing a major label debut with the release of their mini album “TOKYO POP” on Universal Musicʼs Far Eastern Tribe Records. They now continue to live their childhood dream of becoming artists.
AMIAYAʼs personal theme is “Tokyo x Stylish” (or “oshare” in Japanese), and they work to bring “real music” to a worldwide audience. They are their own producers – handling everything from song writing, lyrics, directing their music videos, outfit styling and hair styling.
