More details at holocene.org/vaccine Based across Melbourne and Sydney, the core of Haiku Hands is Beatrice Lewis, Claire Nakazawa and Mie Nakazawa. Together, they curate, perform and work as a collective of artists, engaging and exploring social norms with their lyrical and visual content. Their influences range from hip-hop to pop, electronic to dance, and everything beyond. Rebellious, experimental and wildly unconventional, their 2020 debut Haiku Hands was primarily recorded in Melbourne with Joel Ma (Joelistics) and featured collaborations with SOFI TUKKER, Mad Zach, Machine Drum, Mirac, Elgusto of Hermitude and Lewis CanCut. With lead singles “ Not About You ,” “ Manbitch ” and “ Onset ,” the 12-track LP probes themes including technology, relationships, the absurd and social commentary. Live, they’re outrageous and bold and deliver the type of performance that turns a dingy club or festival pit into a heaving sweaty mess. With synchronized dance moves and high energy production, Haiku Hands present an eclectic and energizing live experience like no other.
