Mimori Yusa (遊佐 未森, Yusa Mimori), (born February 20, 1964, in Sendai in Miyagi Prefecture), is a Japanese singer-songwriter. She made her nationwide debut at the age of 6 on the TV program Chibikko Nodojiman, which she recited the Takibi nursery rhyme. Shortly after graduating college, she recorded a demo, and signed to Epic/Sony Records in 1987, which officially began her music career. Although she has since had a very prolific career, Yusa became popular for her song "Kuro", which was featured on the NHK television program Minna no Uta from December 2005 until January 2006. She was also in the mid-1990s supergroup Love, Peace & Trance, which also featured Mishio Ogawa, Miyako Koda from Dip in the Pool and Haruomi Hosono as the producer, composer and songwriter.[1]
