Performing professionally since 2004, Airi Mori is a Japanese-born, Los Angeles-based, pop/R&B soul singer/songwriter/producer in the style of Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, and Celine Dion. Born and raised in Nagoya, Japan, Airi started singing American Pop songs at age seven--long before ever learning to speak English. A very serious student, she practiced music for up to six hours a day for over fifteen years and earned a degree in International Studies with honors from the prestigious Waseda University in Japan. In 2013, she moved to Los Angeles where she was soon acknowledged by other great writers/musicians, such as a Grammy winning songwriter, Allan Rich (who has written songs for Whitney Houston, Natalie Cole, and ‘NSYNC). Adding to her list of credits, she has danced in Japanese television commercials for major brands (Takarakuji and Parco), performed her original material live before an audience of 3,000 people at a major music venue in Tokyo (Ebisu), and sang backups for Miki Howard at the famous Catalina Bar and Grille in Los Angeles. On June 2014, she will be releasing her debut independent album, “Reason of Love,” which showcases her writing, producing, and performing talents.
