Piana - Sweet Japanese Indie Pop

Pianas new album "Ephemeral" is just the right thing for me on a sunday with the worst hangover ever.

Born in 1976, Piana is Naoko Sasaki, living in Morioka, Japan.Her musical activity began with Card Skepper, a collaboration with guitarist Yuichiro Iwashita who is now one half of the electro acoustic unit Minamo (cubic music, quakebasket, apestaartje, 360 records). Through participation on albums and live performances with World's End Girlfriend, she has been fascinating many people with her delicate, cute and unique voice and musical talent as Piana.
