At last seriously having the world in view, the cover photo and track list of 11 songs of self titled album “MIYAVI” was announced. This will be pre-released on June 19th (Wed) in Japan.

For the production group, producer Dean Gillard was hired who has won the Grammy Awards and The Brit Awards by working with Janet Jackson/Rihanna/Carlos Santana/Taylor Swift/Outcast/Usher/Mary J Blige/Leona Lewis in the past. They had their own full-time vocal, producer, writer, engineer team and ventured recording, and recorded in London.
