Motto: "Worry? ... This I don't say, but if I'd say strong, it would be kind of a problem because then I'd have too many mottos."
Miyavi most often writes, produces, composes and performs all his own music. Though, as of late, allows others' input and help
-Miyavi has both parents and a younger sister. Also a close grandmother.

-His real last name is Ishihara, but his Korean grandfather's name was Lee until it was changed.

-He says he doesn't go shopping often cause his clothing is either donated by fans or he keeps them from the photoshoots or music videos he participates in. (LFX October 4th, 2005, and various other sources)
-Miyavi commented on of his tattoos, Omitoufu: "It is the speech in the Buddha literature of Wisdom. I want to spend my life to find the answer of my heart".
Miyavi (äº-miyavi-, born September 14, 1981 in Hyogo, Japan, is a Japanese, solo Japanese rock artist and former guitarist (under the name Miyabi (äº, Miyabi?)) for the visual kei indies band Dué le quartz, which disbanded in 2002. In the same year, Miyabi announced that he was going solo, changed his name to Miyavi, and released his debut album "¡¼äº楽¡½-gagaku-." He soon signed a contract with PS Company along with other artists such as Alice Nine, Kagrra,, Gazette, and Kra. These bands, including Miyavi, are said to be a type of Visual Kei called Koi Kei X.
In October 2004, Miyavi released his first major single "ROCK no gyakushuu -SUPERSTAR no jouken («í«Ã«¯ªÎæ½ã©-«¹ー«Ñー«¹«¿ーªÎ条Ëì-, ROCK no gyakushuu -SUPERSTAR no jouken?)" and began to credit himself in the songwriting credits in his liner notes as "MYV". His first major album, "¡¼äº-miyavizm-ñ«ëù¡½", was released in June 2005.
Miyavi composes, arranges, and produces his own music. He has been playing guitar for 11 years.
Miyavi's significant change in music style since leaving Dué le quartz caused many of his original audience to disperse, but attracted a new audience that he did not originally have.
In addition to his musical career, Miyavi also starred as himself in the 2003 film "Oresama (ªªªìªµªÞ, Oresama?)" and models for various J-Rock magazines such as Fools Mate, Arena 37c, and Shoxx magazine. He has also modeled for the clothing line Fotus.
