Momoi has worked her way up by singing and performing on the streets of Akihabara in the late 90's, later releasing singles and formed a partnership with Masaya Koike as UNDER17 to perform songs for games and anime including DearS, Genshiken and Kujibiki Unbalance. After Masaya and Haruko went their seperate ways in 2004, Haruko went onto a solo career, performing songs for D.C. ~Da Capo~, School Days, My Bride is a Mermaid, Yurumates and Unofficial Sentai Akibaranger and has since created her own production label "Akihabara Love Records".

SMASH made the announcement via facebook and on their website. Considering Haruko's performance record at North American anime conventions we can expect she will be performing at SMASH but no further details have been announced yet. You can view SMASH's write-up on Haruko Momoi here.
