Maki Yamazaki

Glasgow, United Kingdom

<p>Dr. Carmilla [as played by MaKi Yamazaki] tells the twisted tales of a distopian future following WWII having ended very differently. Her unique blend of dieselpunk cabaret defies conventional classification and has been compared to the likes of Amanda Palmer, David Bowie, Nick Cave and Pink Floyd. From jazzed-up ballads of nuclear fallout, to the ever-unfolding, multiple-song stories of infection and love, her music invites audiences to laugh, cry or cringe in amusement.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Her stage presence, often accompanied by her backing band, The Mechanisms with a full ensemble of strings, percussion, piano, bass and flute has been described as both atmospheric and mesmerising. New york musician and owner of MPress Records, Rachael Sage, describes her music as:</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p style="text-align: center;">"<span style="font-style: italic;">Beautiful, stirring and surprising...MaKi is an innovator and her text, as well as her music, is a layered reflection of her own humor, vibrancy and intelligence.</span>"</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Locked deep in the cavern of Silvana Studio, Dr. Carmilla is currently writing and recording her debut EP, whilst holding her distorted lens to a world that, quite frankly, could do with a wake up call or, at least, a bit of fantasy.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>MaKi Yamazaki is a feminist and an advocate of queer and disabled peoples' rights. She was also born with a connective tissue disorder called Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and works to raise awareness of this rare and disabling condition.</p>
