Maia Hirasawa, daughter of a Swedish mother and a Japanese father, started her career as a background singer and musician to Annika Norlin´s indie pop project Hello Saferide .
In 2007 her own-produced debut album Though, I'm Just Me was released, including the hit singles And I Found This Boy and Gothenburg. Since then she´s been a natural part of the Swedish, but also the Japanese music scene.
In 2010 she went to Japan to take a break from music and came home with a huge music career in Japan, although that was not the plan.

She now sings in both Swedish, English and Japanese and she says she will continue singing in all the languages.
