Born in Ishigaki Island in 1971. At the club “Menber's English (Hanabusa)” run by my mother, “Ilayoi Tsukiyohama,” sung by a mother and daughter, is getting a lot of attention. Participated as a vocalist on Bigin's cover album “Ryuka -BEGIN SONGS-” which was released by Teichiku Entertainment in 2003. The clear soprano is described as a “gently penetrating singing voice.” In the same year, he began musical activities as a vocalist for the Okinawan pop music unit “Ayakaji (Ayakaji),” composed of sound producer Shimajiri Tetsuaki, guitarist Kenji Furumi, and composer Atsushi Yumeno. That singing voice is the cornerstone of the sound, and since then they have released 7 albums and 3 singles. After Ayafu's dissolution in 2010/9, she began her solo career as “NAKADA Kaori.” In 2011, they covered “Perm Shop Yuta,” which was recorded on BEGIN's Shimauta (Okinawan music) album “Begin's Shimauta (Okinawan music) Omoto Takeo 3,” and released a single from Teichiku Entertainment. It was well received by singing about the feelings of an old woman at a perm shop to send to her daughter who has left Okinawa tomorrow and left for the mainland after graduating from school. In the same single, they also covered “Morning Flower” by Higuchi Ichiichi, which is a homage to Ishikawa Sayuri. They sing their feelings for loved ones along with their summer memories. In the summer of 2012, they formed the “Returning Child Unit” and “Moon · Taiyo · ☆ (Tsukutei Dasta)” with Syakari Chiaki and Matsuda Shinobu of the same age. They mainly perform in Ishigaki Island and Kanto with his hometown Tokeiji Yasuyuki, who has supported arranging and accompaniment since the Saifu period. “Hanajima Fugetsu ~ Katou Fugetsu ~” was released in 2019/10 with an original song written by Yasuyuki Tokeiji for Nakata.
