Artist Profile
Hayato YamaokaBorn and raised in Japan, Hayato Yamaoka grew up immersed in English-language songs and music from around the world.
He first gained widespread attention through his cover performances of well-known international classics. Today, he has approximately 150,000 followers across social media, with his videos surpassing 10 million cumulative views. Rather than simply recreating familiar songs, he reshapes them through his own voice, revealing new emotions within music listeners may have heard countless times before.
Having explored a wide range of genres
including Rock, R&B, Soul, HipHop, and Pop
Hayato brings both versatility and depth to his performances. His delicate yet warm vocal tone carefully draws out the emotions that lie beneath each song.
After making his major-label debut as a member of a dance vocal group, he rebuilt his career as a solo artist. He now self-produces his original music while releasing new material and collaborating with artists both in Japan and internationally.
Beyond his own work as a performer, Hayato also provides songs for other artists and develops projects centered around the human voice. His creative work extends into event production, live-show direction, and entertainment experiences that go beyond the traditional boundaries of music.
As both a performer and a creator, he transforms music from something we simply hear into something we truly feel.
