MIYAVI commence sa carrière musicale sous le nom de miyabi dans le groupe Dué le quartz. Il est rapidement remarqué, non seulement parce qu'il compose la majorité des chansons, mais aussi de part son attitude de rock star. Sa carrière solo débute juste après la séparation de Dué le quartz en septembre 2002, avec l'ouverture de son propre site internet. D'une certaine façon, sa continuation dans l'industrie musicale semble naturelle, étant un jeune artiste avec beaucoup à offrir.
MIYAVI est très reconnaissant à Dué le quartz, ayant même le nom du groupe tatoué sur une main, cependant, en tant qu'artiste solo, il est libre de tout compromis. Il entre ainsi chez PS COMPANY en tant qu'artiste solo indie. Il change à de nombreuses reprises la façon d'écrire son prénom, pour finalement arriver à MIYAVI (雅 -MIYAVI- en japonais).
MIYAVI enregistre lui-même toutes les parties – chant, guitare, basse, batterie... – dans le studio de son appartement. Le 31 novembre 2002, sort son premier album, Gagaku, œuvre assez noire et expérimentale, suivi d'une seconde édition peu de temps après. Avant la fin de l'année, il sort trois autres singles, tous composés de sons variés, comme POP is dead ou encore Shindemo Boogie Woogie. Il donne également un concert au Shibuya Kokaidô qui est rapidement complet. Les fans présents se hâtent d'acheter son single tariraritarara♪, disponible le même jour pour la modique somme de 500 yens. Face à ce nouveau succès, il décide à la dernière minute de faire un concert supplémentaire le 1er avril 2003 au Takadanobaba AREA, si bien que les tickets ne sont vendus que la veille au Like An Edison. Puis, son fan club officiel ouvre le 25 avril, devenu aujourd'hui international, Co-miyavi Worldwide International Family (C.W.I.F.).
Le 25 juin, tariraritarara♪ est de nouveau disponible à la vente, mais cette fois-ci en boutique. Un mois plus tard, son premier DVD live, Gekokujô, est aussi dans les bacs. Puis, sort notamment le single Coo quack cluck - ku ku ru-, qui sera utilisé pour le film « Oresama », sorti en 2004, film racontant la vie de MIYAVI dans lequel il joue son propre rôle.
Le concert suivant a lieu le 19 octobre au Tôkyô Hibiya Yagai Ongakudô avec des musiciens prestigieux : Pata (ex-X JAPAN), Luke (ex-Seikima II), Chirolyn (ex-hide with spread beaver) et Shinya (ex-Luna Sea). Il parcourt ensuite tout le Japon pour la promotion de son deuxième album intitulé Galyuu, et donne aussi quelques dates en Asie (Taïwan, Corée et Hong-Kong).
En 2004, MIYAVI rejoint Universal Music et passe major en novembre, tout en continuant ses collaborations avec PS COMPANY. Son premier maxi-single major est Rock no gyakushuu -Super star no jouken- / 21seikikei koushinkyoku, qui atteint la dixième place du classement Oricon catégorie major.
Le 31 août 2004, il présente son show This is Oudou (la voie royale) au Nippon Budôkan, dont le deuxième étage seulement a été loué. Le premier étage et la fosse sont vides, la scène se révèle être en fait aérienne, avec une avancée au dessus du vide.
Son premier album major, miyavi -miyavizm- shugi, sort en juin 2005, et c'est à ce moment qu'il se rend compte qu'il a besoin d'autres musiciens pour pouvoir continuer à avancer.
Il propose ensuite plusieurs maxi-singles en différentes versions, toujours très attractifs, Kekkonshiki no uta / Are you ready to ROCK?, Señor Señora Señorita, Dear my friend / Itoshii hito, ainsi que Kimi ni negai o. Dès lors, MIYAVI tente d'améliorer sa musique en y ajoutant d'autres influences, notamment des touches jazz.
En été 2006, les deux albums MYV☆POPS et miyavi-miyaviuta-uta ainsi que les singles confirment cette nouvelle tendance. A la fin de l’année, il continue à remplir les salles et participe également à un concert de charité de l'UNICEF.
En 2007, MIYAVI est encore plus déterminé à faire parler de lui à l'étranger. Il crée tout d'abord la surprise en annonçant un concert en mars dans un club de Las Vegas. Puis, il participe au J-rock Revolution en mai à Los Angeles, aux côtés de Merry, MUCC, Alice Nine., Vidoll, DuelJewel, girugamesh, Kagrra, et D'espairsRay. Il y annonce qu’il intègre le nouveau super groupe nommé S.K.I.N., aux côtés de YOSHIKI, Gackt et SUGIZO. Le groupe ne se produit cependant qu'une seule fois, lors de l'Anime Expo en Californie.
Par la suite, MIYAVI crée un nouveau style, le néovisualisme, pour lequel il s'inspire fortement du kabuki (art théâtral japonais traditionnel), et est accompagné de musiciens qui s'appellent les KAVKI BOIZ. Peu après la sortie du single Sakihokoru hana no you ni / Kabuki danshi, MIYAVI commence en juillet une tournée mondiale, The Beginning Of NEO VISUALIZM Tour 2007, pendant laquelle il se produit non seulement au Japon, mais aussi en Corée du Sud, ainsi qu’en Allemagne (pour l’AnimagiC à Bonn).
MIYAVI continue à sortir des opus, pour finalement annoncer en décembre une tournée mondiale, THIS IZ THE JAPANESE KABUKI ROCK TOUR 2008, qui s'arrête dans plusieurs villes américaines, en Allemagne, en France, au Royaume-Uni, en Corée du Sud, à Taiwan, en Chine, et bien sûr au Japon.
Il sort aussi deux nouveaux albums, miyavi -THIS IZ THE JAPANESE KABUKI ROCK-, et AZN PRIDE -This Iz the Japanese Kabuki Rock-.
Le 24 décembre, MIYAVI sort une compilation de ses clips vidéo, ainsi qu'un album de remix électro, montrant son évolution artistique depuis ses débuts en tant qu'indie.
En 2009, c'est la vie privée de MIYAVI qui est mise sur le devant de la scène avec son mariage avec la chanteuse J-pop Melody et la naissance de sa première fille.
Il annonce aussi qu'il a quitté PS COMPANY pour fonder sa propre maison d'édition, J-glam Inc..
Début avril, il donne le concert NEO TOKYO SAMURAI BLACK - Zoku. Nariagari 2009-, avant de partir se produire sur la scène de l'Anime Matsuri au Texas.
Ce mois est aussi l'occasion de plusieurs sorties : un DVD live du concert Nariagari (shaku) de 2003, un CD regroupant plusieurs anciens singles, VICTORY ROAD TO THE KING OF NEO VISUAL ROCK -singles-, un DVD compilant les clips figurant sur le CD précédemment cité, VICTORY ROAD TO THE KING OF NEO VISUAL ROCK -clips-, ainsi que divers DVD du concert Peace&Smile Carnival du 3 janvier de la PS COMPANY.
MIYAVI débute en septembre 2009 une deuxième tournée mondiale, avec des dates dans le monde entier, dont certains pays d'Amérique du Sud. Cependant, il ne peut assurer les dates américaines suite à une maladie. Il fait tout de même pas moins de 22 dates dans 15 pays différents.
Le 1er janvier 2010, J-glam Inc. annonce que MIYAVI a signé avec le label EMI MUSIC JAPAN.
Après d'autres sorties toujours proches du best of, MIYAVI revient avec un nouveau style, beaucoup plus brut, plus acoustique, plus épuré que tout ce qu'il a fait jusqu'à maintenant, qu'il célèbre par une tournée internationale, NEO TOKYO SAMURAI BLACK WORLD TOUR. A peine rentré des États-Unis, MIYAVI se lance dans une nouvelle tournée tokyoïte, Screaming Out from Tokyo, pendant laquelle il se produit uniquement dans des petites salles.
Ce nouveau style est consacré dans deux sorties, TORTURE, un maxi-single sorti en septembre, et WHAT'S MY NAME? le mois suivant. De plus, ce même mois, sa seconde petite fille née.
MIYAVI annonce une nouvelle tournée européenne pour mars et avril 2011, de même qu'une réédition de sa chanson WHAT'S MY NAME?.
Avec une discographie très fournie, un talent et un charisme capables d'attirer les foules partout sur le globe, chacun peut trouver quelque chose qui lui plaît chez MIYAVI et dans sa musique. Toujours inventif, créatif, surprenant, on ne peut pas prédire ce qu'il nous réserve pour l'avenir. Il ne nous reste qu'à attendre et à voir quel nouveau genre, quels nouveaux sons viendront de cet artiste talentueux.

雅-MIYAVI- (real name: 石原貴雅, Takamasa Ishihara) was born September 14th 1981 in Konohana-ku, Osaka, Japan. 雅-MIYAVI- is only half Japanese, his father being second-generation Zainichi Korean.
When he was young 雅-MIYAVI- focussed mostly on soccer and his dream was to become a professional soccer player. However, at age 15 he got injured and he was forced to give up this dream. Having nothing to do he and inspired by his friends that started playing musical instruments 雅-MIYAVI- bought himself a guitar, even though at first he was planning on buying a bass guitar. The first time he played the guitar he knew he'd become a professional musician, he could see himself on stage with a guitar. It became his life goal.
When 雅-MIYAVI- was 17 a good friend of his passed away suddenly. He didn't want to stay in Osaka without him so he dropped out of high school and left to Tokyo with just a little money, his cell phone, cigarettes and a guitar. In Tokyo he was offered lots of opportunities in modelling but finding them suspicious he refused them all. After he'd almost given up hope and decided to return to Osaka he ran into a member of Dué le Quartz and the evening before his departure he became their newest and also youngest band member.
In 1999 雅-MIYAVI- joined the band Dué le Quartz, replacing their old guitarist Ken under the name Miyabi. Even though he was the youngest member he composed most of the songs and wrote a lot of the band's lyrics. On February 14th, on valentines day, they played their first live together.
Even though the band started getting more and more successful 雅-MIYAVI- felt there were was a wide gap between his goal, and the other band members. Such thoughts started getting him depressed and he became unable to compose or write any lyrics. Feeling that this had to change, he cancelled all his jobs and left for Okinawa, as far away as he could get. He spent the night at the beach and the next morning he felt as if all his worries had disappeared. He'd decided to go back and continue with the band and he got his first tattoo (There is only one me under heaven and earth). But even after all of this, nothing changed within the band and only a few months later, in June 2002 Dué le Quartz came to an end. The day after the break-up 雅-MIYAVI- announced the start of his solo-career and changed his name from Miyabi to Miyavi
After leaving Dué le Quarz 雅-MIYAVI- didn't sit still. Immediately he signed a solo contract at PS Company (the same label Dué le Quartz had been under) and in 4 months on October 31st his first solo album Gagaku was released.
Only one year later 雅-MIYAVI-'s second album Galyuu was released in December 2003 and positioned number 1 on the Japanese Oricon Indies Chart.
During his Indies period his fanclub the Co Miyavi Rengou was also founded and the first fanclub trip was held in August 2004 at the Tokyo Dome.
In October 2004 雅-MIYAVI- signed with Universal J and went Major. To celebrate this he played his Last indies live concert at a sold out Budokan.
雅-MIYAVI- debuted his major career by releasing the single ROCK no gyakushuu ~Super star no jouken~. A surprising move that shows that, even though 雅-MIYAVI- is now signed to Universal J, he definitely won't stop rocking. The album miyavizm was released next and after that followed the almost simultaneous release of the different and pop-sounding albums MYV★POPS and miyabiuta ~dokusou~. The album MYV★POPS contained 7 consecutive top 10 smash hit singles. The albums showed a huge growth in 雅-MIYAVI-'s musical ability. For his 25th birthday 雅-MIYAVI- held a 5 constitutive day concert including a fanclub live. For the lives he worked together with various artists like a DJ, beat boxer, tap dancer and percussionists. This would be the start of the future Kabuki Rock style.
After his birthday lives he put his career to a complete stop to study English in the United States. Even though 雅-MIYAVI- found the experience useful he's mentioned that the half year break hadn't had any influence on him as an artist. Besides studying English he used his time in the USA to give spontaneous street lives to find out if his music would be appreciated by people who didn't know him too.
雅-MIYAVI- returned home with renewed inspiration and in July 2007 he released the single Sakihokoru Hana no You ni ~Neo Visualizm~ album which officially marked the start of his new neo visual kei style. The album 7 SAMURAI SESSIONS ~We're KAVKI BOIZ~ which included several remakes of previously released songs was released shortly after. For both single and the album he worked together with a group of artists he'd met both in Japan and in the USA now called KAVKI BOIZ or kabuki boys.
In the same month his first concert overseas was held in Bonn, Germany at July 29th. The venue held only 2000 people and high demand had caused a load of fake tickets to be sold. Even though the venue wouldn't let the fake ticket holders in. 雅-MIYAVI- felt it was unfair and convinced the venue to let the fake ticket holders in anyway, Because they paid for it, and he ended up playing for a crowd that by far exceeded the maximum capacity of the venue.
Around the same time, in June 2007 it was also announced at jrock revolution that 雅-MIYAVI- had joined the super group S.K.I.N. together with Yoshiki, GACKT and SUGIZO. The band was short lived though and seized activities after only one concert at the anime expo. Even if there wasn't an official break up, there hasn't been any news of renewed activities and all band members referred to Yoshiki when asked about the band's activities.
In the year 2008 in March This Iz The Japanese Kabuki Rock was released. This album continued with the Neo Visualizm or Kabuki Rock theme. The album was followed soon with a world tour including many lives in the USA, South America, Europe and Asia. During the world tour a compilation album including 2 new songs was released. After 雅-MIYAVI-'s first world tour he went trough a complete style change and he took out his trademark piercings, claiming not to need them anymore to boost his confidence. A few months later a remix album was released and in January 2009 雅-MIYAVI- celebrated his 10th year at PS Company. Shortly after though he announced his graduation from PS Company, first to his fanclub members and later publicly. He felt that he needed to be independent to grow further and he left the company on April 5th.
During the world tour he met the talk show hostess and ex-pop singer Melody at his appearance in her show J melo. On March 26th, 2009 Tokyo graph reported their marriage. 雅-MIYAVI- himself commented on the issue trough his blog, confirming the rumours and stating he'd further comment on it during his graduation concert at April 5th. Due to contract reasons he wasn't able to announce it properly while still under PS Company.
During his last concert under PS Company on April 5th 雅-MIYAVI- properly announced his marriage to Melody and that they were expecting a baby next summer. Three days later his own management company J-Glam was launched. Soon after the fanclub was recreated under the new name C.W.I.F. (Co-miyavi worldwide international family), which would open for overseas members in September, and the newly recorded song SuperHero became available for free download on the SNS site Myspace as a present for his fans.
On July 29th 雅-MIYAVI-'s daughter was born. She was named Lovelie, written with the Japanese characters for love (愛) and reason (理) in Japanese.
Around the same time the dates for 雅-MIYAVI-'s second world tour were announced. The tour would include the same countries as the first tour plus a many additional countries like Hungary, Italy, Austria and Mexico. The tour was the biggest international tour ever performed by a Japanese Visual Kei artist. Unfortunately, due to health problems after an accident on stage in Toulouse, France 雅-MIYAVI- was forced to cancel the North-American part of the tour and return to Japan to seek medical attention.
Just a few weeks after returning 雅-MIYAVI- already got back to work and entered the studio to record the new song he'd written during the world tour. At the same time he also got busy finishing the Asian part of the world tour. The new song named SURIVE Was released onto his youtube account in March 2010 and in the same month the first fanclub trip of the C.W.I.F. would also take place in Okinawa.
After the European and South American part of his 2009 world tour, 雅-MIYAVI- left his producing label Universal J and on March 23rd he signed with EMI Music. Soon after SURVIVE was released in usb format as 雅-MIYAVI-'s first single under the new label. Later the Japanese leg of the NEO TOKYO SAMURAI BLACK tour took place and, in June, 雅-MIYAVI- also returned to the the USA and Canada to finish the rescheduled American leg of the tour.
In summer a mini tour was held in Tokyo, featuring 12 lives in small livehouses in Tokyo. This tour, called Screaming out from Tokyo was entirely streamed online for those who could not attend the concerts. The setlists contained mainly songs from his new album WHAT'S MY NAME? released the fallowing October.
雅-MIYAVI-'s second daughter was born prematurely on the 21st of October. Soon after he revealed her name to be Jewelie Aoi Ishihara, written in Japanese as 希理, meaning reason of hope.
As 2010 came to an end, 雅-MIYAVI- started announcing dates for a new tour, WHAT'S MY NAME 2011 that would cover Japan and an amazing 21 dates in Europe.
With the prospect of a fresh tour to promote the new raw and powerful sound of his latest album, 雅-MIYAVI- started off 2011 by releasing WHAT'S MY NAME ep, a collaboration between him and various amazing bass artists signed under the EMI record lebel such as Ken Ken, Tokie or Miya.
