Fayray

Fayray (フェイレイ, Feirei), (born April 18 1976) stylized as FAYRAY, is a Japanese singer-songwriter. She made her debut in July 1998 with the single "Taiyō no Gravity". She grew up in the United States and speaks English. Fayray is the middle child of a family of three daughters. During her childhood, she listened to American music from the 70s and 80s with her parents which had a big influence on her musical style. At age 4 she began playing classical piano.

Fayray landed a recording contract with the now-defunct Antinos Records label.

After one album, Craving, Fayray opted to take full creative control over her music and began writing and composing her own music. She wrote the two b-sides of her fifth single, "Same Night, Same Face" before self-producing her next single, "My Eyes", and all of her subsequent records.

In 2006, she traveled to New York City in search of new ideas to create her ideal music. There she met avant-garde producer Dougie Bowne and produced two albums with him.

As of 2015, the singer has resumed performance under the name Mina Ohashi, performing as part of the duo The Present with Rusty Santos. The duo's debut album, FSG, was released May 12, 2015.
