Ringo Sheena Biography

Ringo Sheena is one of the most popular and richest Musician who was born on November 25, 1978 in Saitama, Saitama Prefecture, Japan. Although she admired Eddi Reader’s voice, she felt that her voice was less clear and her voice sounded more hoarse. Janis Ian was an inspiration to her singing, and she inspired her to write “Seventeen” as a tribute. Later, she covered “Love Is Blind”. She enjoys many types of music. She had ten pages of carefully compiled lists of her favourite musicians at the time she made her debut. These pages included a variety of genres including classical music, Japanese, American pop music from the 1950s and 60s, contemporary rock and Fukuoka.

In February 1999, Muzai Moratorium was released, her first album. It was a huge success. “Gips” was supposed to be the next single. However, Sheena was ill and had to cancel recording. “Honno”, however, was released instead. Shina chose to shoot the music video for “Honno” in a hospital.

Sheena’s older brother Junpei Shiina is an R&B musician, who debuted in 2000 under Sony. Since 2006, he has been managed by Kronekodow, Sheena’s personal management agency. The pair have collaborated musically several times. In 2002, they covered three songs in English: Marvin Gaye’s “The Onion Song” for Sheena’s album Utaite Myōri, “Where Is the Love” (originally performed by Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway) for Junpei Shiina’s album Discover, and Toto’s “Georgy Porgy.” “Georgy Porgy” was recorded as a part of a special unit called Yokoshima, featuring Jumpei Shiina on keyboards and Ringo Sheena on chorus. In 2007, the pair sang a duet on her single “Kono Yo no Kagiri.”

Lenny Kravitz stated that he admired Sheena’s music video and both her way of making music and the presentation, and said that he wanted to meet her in

2000. When Courtney Love visited Japan in 2001, she was recommended several Japanese female rock singers by the music magazine editor of rockin’on. Sheena and Seagull Screaming Kiss Her Kiss Her were chosen by Love, but she was unsuccessful in her efforts to contact Sheena. British singer-songwriter Mika mentioned Sheena as one of his favorite Japanese artists (alongside Puffy AmiYumi, The Yellow Monkey, Yoko Kanno, and the Yoshida Brothers) in several interviews during his visit to Japan in 2007. Jack Barnett of These New Puritans, who was visiting Japan for the Summer Sonic 2008 festival, said in an interview that he was a great fan of Ringo Sheena and bought all her works while he was there, as they were not available in the United Kingdom.

Sheena, then 19, released her first single “Kofukuron” on May 1998. The singles “Kabukicho no Joo”, and “Koko de Kiss Shite” were her next hits.
