K MAK is the originals project of Australian cellist Kathryn McKee -

a distillation of classical, alternative and electro-pop music.

 

She draws on her experience playing with Kanye West, Eminem, Archie Roach, Guy Sebastian, Vera Blue and Opera Queensland to weave strings, beats, synths and vocals into vivid, emotive artpop. 

​

K Mak has been nominated for a Q Song Award, the International Songwriting Competition and an Independent Music Award, and had airplay on community radio stations worldwide, ABC Classic and on KEXP.

​

K Mak mostly plays around Australia, and has featured at the Woodford Folk Festival, a Tedx Youth Forum and as opener for the World Science Festival. Her visually-curated Planetarium performances repeatedly sell out Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth, and she's recently returned from a record-breaking 92 shows in Edinburgh.

​

K Mak has somehow also featured in the latest Supercheap auto ad, in Baz Lurhmann’s ‘Elvis’, and in Dubai fashion magazine ‘Mojeh’.
