Hitomitoi
Hitomitoi (一十三十一) was born as Hitomi Shimamura (下村 一十三) in 1978 in Japanese Sapporo, Hokkaido. Debuting in 2002 with her airy coquettish vocals on 360°, she has released a series of conceptual original albums since then. Music of the band incorporates various genres (including soul, jazz, and funk), and sometimes is also described as the modern city pop revival. Hitomi calls Tatsuro Yamashita (山下 達郎) the artist who influenced her the most. She actively performs at the local scene, composes music for commercials, produces female idol band Neggico and also sings as the lead vocal in neo-doo-wop project Jinatana & Emeralds. The album City Dive (2012) was highly acclaimed by local critics as well as Surfbank Social Club released in 2013.
