DANIEL Irei (伊礼彼方, Irei) is a Japanese actor, musician and fashion model. He was born February 3, 1982, in Argentina as Daniel Irei (ダニエル 伊礼), but uses the stage name "Kanata." This was a stage name he created out of not eating to use a foreign name. He is half-Okinawan and half-Chilean. He was brought up in Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan since he was six. He also has two siblings, a younger brother nicked named Rocky and a younger sister named Mari. Though he was born in Argentina, he does not speak any Spanish, only Japanese, since his formal education was all done in Japan. Later during his teenage years, his parents separated due to his mother's infidelity. He never graduated high school due to low grades, but showed interest in the arts. His favorite hobbies are playing soccer, billiards, snowboarding and skateboarding. Special abilities of his include making cocktails and playing instruments such as the trumpet, guitar and the piano. His musical activities started when he was in junior high school where he joined his first band, The Lantern. In August 2000, Irei formed the band alongside Takeshi Kimura and Tetsuya Sugimoto, with the group releasing their first single in 2001. In 2003, he would depart from the band, leaving The Lantern on temporary hiatus. In 2004, he started a new band, "Daniel Control", where he was the lead vocalist, and also plays the guitar and piano. "Daniel Control" has also won a musical competition.
