Mariaria

Artist

Mariaria is a unit pairing singer-songwriter Isako Saneyoshi with Masumi Ito, known for her ethereal sound design in anime music. The unit name is said to derive from a parakeet Ito kept and the word 'aria.' They performed the ending theme 'Kanata' for the TV anime 'The Good Witch of the West: Astraea Testament,' with lyrics by Saneyoshi and composition and arrangement by Ito. Released on a single bearing the song as its title, its translucent sound blends into the fantasy world, a piece where the two artists' sensibilities intersect to leave a quiet afterglow.
