I-Taki Maki at Mobile Blues Club | Hamburg

I-Taki Maki, Italian Alt-Indie Duo, formed in 2012, based in Berlin since July 2015, will perform for the second time at Mobile Blues Club in Hamburg.
They're gonna play their new songs, from the last fourth album, "A Place to Leave”, that has been released at the beginning of January 2018.

The group consists of Go-Mimmi-Go (songwriter, vocals, drums, piano, keyboards, glockenspiel & melodica) and strAw (songwriter, vocals & guitars).
Their music features a melding of alternative rock, slowcore and post-punk influences, typified by minimal arrangement and composition, warm voices, deep emotional sound.

The album is made up of nine songs, all based on the concept of "place" and each one connected to the next by a "fil rouge"; all of them try to talk about the essence of human existence, the struggle for survival in a seemingly cosmopolitan and strongly competitive world where the resources are not enough, where people in need are defeated by their impotent existence in a globalized and consumerist state of madness, where thousands of people are forced to leave their home, their own families, for the most disparate and desperate motivations.

Their live activity is being more and more intense, including, alternatively, dreamy sessions for intimate concerts and powerful sessions with mighty drums and sharp guitars' sounds… (to name some of the most important venues: Rosi’s, Monarch, Badehaus, Dunker Club, Madame Claude, Noize Fabrik, Culture Container, Artliners, Lagari and many more in Berlin but also Leipzig, Koeln, Bochum, Hamburg, Luebeck, Prague, Amsterdam, Budapest, Ferrara, Rome).

"A mighty and vigorous sound that becomes sometimes sweet and dreamy but also deeply sad, at the same time. Surrealistic, introspective lyrics and a rude narration. indented and dark atmospheres, gray and foggy backgrounds, claustrophobic and troublesome spaces, huge and confusing landscapes, where women and men live between lies and truth, love need, reconciliation with themselves and with God. Unknowns fears."
