Miwa Sasagawa (笹川美和, Sasagawa Miwa, born on February 23, 1983) is a young Japanese singer from Shibata in Niigata. She represents many genres although her music is generally described as a mix of Japanese folk music, rock and electronic sounds.
She started her music career in 2000 when she won the Christmas Song Grand Prix held by the ecoburger chain Mosburger with her song “Thanks To Be Here”. After that, she released a couple of singles as an indie artist.

In July 2007 she terminated her contract with avex trax for artistic reasons and is now again pursuing a career as an independent artist.
