From an early age it was clear that a life in the Arts was imminent for Kojii as she was rarely without a paint-brush, camera, an instrument or a tune on her lips.

Being the daughter of Enda Wyatt, Co-Founder, Songwriter and Bass player of Irish rock band "An Emotional Fish" (Atlantic Records) sparked her love of music and the entertainment industry along.

After studying Technical Stage & Production which included costume design, lighting operation/design and stage management, Kojii worked as a freelance Stage Manager in Irish Theatres for 4 years which led her to work in a Parisian Circus. Stage Management then prompted a stint in Los Angeles where her potential as a fashion model was discovered.

Upon her return to Ireland she was immediately signed by Top Irish Agent Rebecca Morgan. Within days Morgan had Kojii on the Runway for esteemed Irish designer John Rocha, before the top people in Irish fashion world. Stage Management was left behind and life as a globe trotting model began.

In 2006, Kojii began writing music with some of her closest friends in Dublin. Three weeks after her return to Ireland the band had begun to book shows around Ireland and soon found themselves with airtime on Irish radio and on National TV.

After much touring, the band are now separated indefinitely and each band member is pursuing exciting musical projects of their own.
