Mitsuki Miyawaki is a Japanese-American singer-songwriter, better known as Mitski, was born September 27, 1990. Her first language as a child in a small village in Mie Prefecture was Japanese.

After she graduated, Double Double Whammy released “Bury Me at Makeout Creek,” her third studio album. Her critically acclaimed albums “Puberty 2” and “Be the Cowboy,” both released by Dead Oceans, followed. Mitski returned in 2021 with the song “Working for the Knife” after a three-year hiatus, and her sixth studio album, “Laurel Hell,” was released in February 2022. Mitski blew up on TikTok thanks to her song “Washing Machine Heart,” with 45 million streams.
