LiSA's musical experience began at the age of three when, upon her mother's suggestions, she took private piano lessons. Although she was a shy student in kindergarten, she enjoyed her music lessons. In primary school, she was inspired to sing after seeing the band [[SPEED (Japanese group)|SPEED]] on television. She later took dance and vocal lessons, which continued through her junior high school years. While in elementary, she participated in an audition held at the [[Nippon Budokan]], and it was during this time she decided to become an artist. In junior high school, she formed a band which covered songs by [[wikipedia: Avril Lavigne|Avril Lavigne]], [[LOVE PSYCHEDELICO]], and [[EGO-WRAPPIN']].

LiSA began her singing career in 2005 during her first year in high school when she formed the [[Indie|indie]] rock band [[CHUCKY]], which mainly covered songs by other artists. During her second year, the band received advice from their peers that they should start making their own songs; eventually the band's reputation grew enough that they performed in Osaka and Nagoya in addition to Gifu. Although her grades in high school were good, she decided not to go to university, despite the recommendations of her teachers, in order to focus on her work with [[CHUCKY]]. Nevertheless, after graduation, due to varying schedules among the band's members, it became difficult to continue performing.
 
 
After moving to Tokyo, LiSA formed the band [[Love is Same All]] with members from the indie band Parking Out and began using the stage name ''LiSA'', which is an acronym for [[Love is Same All]].
