Mitski Miyawaki was born in Japan on September 27, 1990. The daughter of an American father and a Japanese mother, she lived, due to her father's work, in thirteen countries before settling in New York, where she began to study music. During her studies, she produced her first two albums as student projects – Lush (2012) and Retired from Sad, New Career in Business (2013), based on piano. The second had an orchestra made up of more than 60 students.
