What attracted her to drums was the gap between the fact that although drummers support their whole band, more often than not, no matter how theatrical or showy they are, lead singers and guitarists are usually the ones in the spotlight. She was inspired to take up the drums at the age of 14, after seeing a live performance on TV. She started learning Spanish to use it in her daily life, but forgot it after coming back to Japan since she had nobody to practice it with. Between the ages of 13 and 14, Shishido lived in Argentina because of her father's work, yet she doesn't keep very good memories of those years, mostly due to the fact that she didn't speak the language.
She lived there until she was two, later going to Japan for elementary school.
Shishido Kavka was born in Mexico in 1985 to Japanese parents. She is signed under the label IMPERIAL RECORDS
