About
"Saarah is a Tokyo-based singer and performer with roots in both America and Japan. Born to an American jazz musician father and a Japanese vocalist mother, she was raised in an environment deeply influenced by classic and contemporary Black music, which shaped the foundation of her artistry. Originally starting her career as a dancer, she was also strongly influenced by hip-hop culture, which continues to play a key role in her performance style and musical expression. Growing up between two cultures, she developed a wide musical perspective, drawing inspiration from R&B, pop, and J-pop, resulting in a sound that blends global influences with a distinct identity. As a member of the girl group BananaLemon, she has spent the past decade building a strong presence in both the Japanese and international music scenes. Known for her ability to seamlessly combine powerful vocals with dynamic dance performance, Saarah delivers high-energy live shows that leave a lasting impact on audiences. Her music embodies confidence, femininity, and independence, often expressed through bilingual lyrics in both English and Japanese. Recently, her sound has evolved toward Afro-pop and global pop, aiming to connect with a wider international audience. In addition to her artist career, she is an experienced live performer and MC, regularly performing at prestigious venues such as The Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons, Hilton, and Andaz Tokyo, as well as hosting at major clubs like RAISE in Tokyo Ginza. Looking ahead, Saarah is focused on expanding her solo career globally while continuing to bridge Japan and the international music industry"
