後藤まりこ
Goto Mariko (後藤まりこ) is a singer from Osaka, Japan signed to DefSTAR Records. She is best known for being the former singer and guitarist of the jazz fusion group ミドリ (Midori).
Goto entered the public eye during the success of her band ミドリ. The members of Midori first met when they were members of two different bands. Goto was a member of the band うさぎ (Usagi) along with Kuwano Yoshifumi. The two were friends with a fellow band in Osaka known as Teromeya. The two expressed in interest in wanting to play in band with Teromeya's drummer Kozen Yoshitaka. Soon enough, the three got their wishes when the two bands broke up. In July 2003, Midori first formed, at the time as a cover band playing songs in Kayokyoku musical style. At the height of the band's success, they sadly announced their breakup on December 25, 2010, with their last show "Sayonara, Goto-San" being played on December 28, 2010. In 2011 she decided to start a solo career which will have a more pop feel from her previous works in Midori. Her first solo album 299792458 was released July 25th, 2012. In August 2012, she starred in the rock musical Hedwig and the Angry Inch as Moriyama Mirai’s partner. Her second album, m@u, was released on December 4, 2013. Her third and final album, こわれた箱にりなっくす, was released on November 12, 2014.
In 2016, Goto announced her retirement from the music industry, citing disillusionment with her career trajectory and the state of the industry. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
