Mochida Kaori (持田香織) is a singer-songwriter and the vocalist of Every Little Thing. She is also a former member of Kuro BUTA All Stars and the one-time unit Caocao.
She began her entertainment career as a child actress before becoming a member of the idol group Kuro BUTA All Stars in 1993. This led to her solo debut with Mou Ichido, but she did not have success as an idol. In 1995 she was slated to make a solo debut as a singer under Avex, but it was instead decided that she would form a unit with producer Igarashi Mitsuru, which then became Every Little Thing.
