Biography


Growing up in Kyoto, Cuushe spent time in Osaka before moving to Tokyo.[11] She also spent extended periods of time in London and Berlin.[11] She started making music in 2008.[11]

Her debut studio album, Red Rocket Telepathy, was released in 2009.[11] In 2012, she released an EP, Girl You Know That I Am Here but the Dream.[12] Her second studio album, Butterfly Case, was released in 2013.[13] Patrick St. Michel of Pitchfork called it "a captivating collection of dream pop."[14] In 2015, she released an EP, Night Lines.[15] "We Can't Stop", a song from the EP, was used in the American dark comedy television series Search Party.[11]

In 2017, she became a victim of stalking and online sexual harassment.[16] A fellow musician broke into her house and stole her unreleased recordings, musical equipment, and personal items such as clothes and photographs.[16]


Style and influences


In a 2012 interview with Dazed, Cuushe cited "musician friends, movies, [and] sadness" as her top 3 musical inspirations.[17]

Colin Joyce of Pitchfork wrote, "The wispy-voiced Tokyo songwriter is nominally a dream-pop act, indulgent in the stirring static and hushed whispers that have become requisite for the genre."[18]
