»Tsunawatari« is the Japanese word for tightrope act. With her deeply sad folk music, Hako Yamaski walks a fine line between self-destruction and navel-gazing. But the 19-year-old confidently keeps her balance. Yamasaki dances between emotional expression and formal reduction, juggling psychedelia, jazz and soft rock. Her show is not over yet, and the audience is itching to see her sister act »Tobimasu«. But be warned: Yamasaki’s world-weary melodies can take your breath away.
