Aya Gloomy is an artist from Tokyo, Japan. At 16 years-old, she started to learn how to make music by herself, and since then, she has been self-producing everything from songwriting, lyrics and artwork to her unique fashion. Her work has been acclaimed, not only in her home country Japan, but outside its borders as well –– her songs are regularly played by Apple Music's radio personality Matt Wilkinson, and she has performed alongside artists such as Yves Tumor, Mykki Blanco and Silent Servant. She played in LA at the Ace Hotel in 2017, and headlined her own show in Hong-Kong in 2019. In 2017, she released her debut EP "Ennui Ground" on the label BIG LOVE Records, followed the next year by the release of her first album “RIKU NO KOTŌ", accompanied by a 12-inch vinyl edition. This album was largely featured in renowned international media and playlists, such as the blog Gorilla vs Bear, the "Electronic Top Playlist" of US i-Tunes and the "Top Playlist" of the British i-D magazine. In 2019, she released the self-produced EP "KANJIRU”. She has had feature articles in Vogue magazine, i-D magazine and a cover story in IN magazine at the end of 2020. She is also the subject of Francesca Allen’s first photo book titled “Aya”. Aya Gloomy shows a multitude of talents outside the music scene as well, including running her second hand clothing store, "Pompom Shop".
