Makiko Hirabayashi Trio, featuring the former Miles Davis Group percussionist, Marilyn Mazur, has received wide critical acclaim as a personal voice on the international jazz scene, since their first album release in 2006. Born in Tokyo, raised in Japan and Hong Kong, educated in Boston and now based in Copenhagen, Makiko is a multicultural artist. Elements of Far Eastern music, Nordic moods, jazz and classical music are all molded uncontrivedly into an intriguing, compelling sound of her own.
Expect “deeply integrated, fiercely vibrant trio playing” in “strong compositions with a great storytelling quality.”
