Information

Aiuchi Rina has always enjoyed singing and her ability to play piano had made her the class pianist during her elementary school years. Before her debut, she modelled for a magazine in a short period of time.

Rina made her musical debut in 2000 with the single Close To Your Heart at the age of 19. It became a club hit. Her fourth single Koi wa Thrill, Shock, Suspense was used as the opening theme for the anime Meitantei Conan, in which the characters danced parapara to the music. This single was also her first time breaking the Oricon Top 10, as the song reached #5. (Since this, all of her singles aside from three have reached the Top 10.) Months later, her first album Be Happy was released; it reached #3 on the Oricon and sold over 325,000 copies.

In October 2001 she released the pop ballad NAVY BLUE. This single reached #2 on the Oricon and was her highest selling single yet, at 128,000 copies. When she released I can't stop my love for you, it was made the opening theme for Conan once more and hit the Oricon at #2 again.

Rina's next album, POWER OF WORDS, became her highest selling record to date and reached #1 on the Oricon. Its sales totaled over 475,000 copies. She also began her national tour "Rina Aiuchi Live Tour 2002 'Power of Words'" and had eight performances.

2003 was a big year for Rina. When FULL JUMP was released, it became the theme song of Nippon Television's baseball broadcasts. She also appeared as a guest for the Yomiuri Giants vs. Yokohama BayStars game, but admitted to being a Hanshin Tigers fan instead. The same year, the "Rina Matsuri" concert was held on July 31st in Osaka as a special performance for her birthday. Guests included fellow GIZA artists U-ka saegusa, Uehara Azumi, Shizukusa Yumi, and Utoku Keiko.

On October 15th, 2003 Rina released three things: her third album, 15th single, and second photobook made in RINA 2003. Like her previous album, "A.I.R" also reached #1 on the Oricon; however, the sales for her third album were far less. Rina also had her national tour "Rina Aiuchi Live Tour 2003 'A.I.R'", but performed only four times.

Dream x Dream was released the following year in April and was used as the theme for the Conan movie, making it her first movie theme. Again in 2004, "Rina Matsuri 2004" was held on her birthday and August 3rd with guests U-ka saegusa, Kitahara Aiko, Shizukusa Yumi and Kishimoto Hayami. Later that year in December, her fourth album PLAYGIRL was released and charted at #7 on the Oricon.

In 2005 "Rina Matsuri 2005" was held with guests U-ka saegusa IN db, OOM, Kamiki Aya, and the tambourines. When the single ORANGE NIGHT was released, it was all but annihilated by Shuuji to Akira's Seishun Amigo, which remained at #1 for several weeks.

Despite her minor setbacks, Rina remains a prominent name in the Japanese music scene and is one of GIZA's most popular artists.

Trivia

  • Speaks in Kansai dialect. Although she has a tiny, high-pitched voice while speaking, her voice becomes deep and powerful when singing.
  • She was produced by Nagato Daikou and KANONJI until a few years ago when she began self-producing.
  • On the CD extras for her third album, Rina says A.I.R stands for "Aiuchi Infinity Rina".
  • Several of Rina's songs have been covered in English by fellow GIZA artist Ohno Aika.
