Aside from learning piano, she also studied ballet for about two years and joined the boys' and girls' chorus and took flute lessons.
Her life was changed upon seeing a rock festival held in the nearby Prefectural Hall in her high school days.
She earned her livelihood working at a wedding hall, during which time she continued to try forming a band.
She wrote the song and made all the members in the hall sing on the pretext of being elected to the executive committee.
She practised acoustic guitar hard to reproduce the sound of the demo tape of her debut single "Ai no Sainō" which Yasuyuki Okamura produced.
However, she encountered problems when she found it difficult to write songs after that, and she occasionally confined herself in a hotel.
She did not agree with the record label's plan for her activities, due to pressure, she got out of shape and went home temporarily.
On July 5, 2006, Kawamoto released a CD as time-limited group of 3 chorus unit "MihoMihoMakoto" after an interval of five years, and she resumed musical activities completely.
