Bio
.. SACHIKO'S PROFILE IS MONITORED BY HER RECORD LABEL CHAPTER MUSIC, ALTHOUGH SHE WILL CHECK MESSAGES AND COMMENTS OCCASIONALLY. .. Discovered at the age of 18 in Osaka, Sachiko was signed in the late 60s to Japan's first ever independent record company, URC, who changed the nation's musical landscape with artists like Happy End, Folk Crusaders and Kenji Endo. Sachiko was the only female artist on the label. .. Her 1972 debut album Misora established Sachiko as Japan's first female singer-songwriter. Misora is a folk masterpiece, with superb arrangements by Harry Hosono of Yellow Magic Orchestra. But before the album was released, Sachiko emigrated to America with US music critic Paul Williams. She did not record again for almost a decade and didnt release another album until 1992. Misora was released in her absence and sank without a trace. .. Encouraged by world renowned science fiction author Philip K Dick, Sachiko reinvented herself in the early 80s as a folk-punk singer, forming the band Culture Shock. Misora was rediscovered by Japanese fans in the early 90s and is now regarded as a classic landmark in Japanese musical history. Sachiko is revered there as a true underground folk pioneer. Misora proves why.
