Mokri

**Mokri** is the dreamy musical alias of Canadian singer-songwriter Michaela MacLeod, who crafts lush soundscapes from her Halifax, Nova Scotia homebase. Blending introspective indie-folk with swirling shoegaze textures and ambient electronics, her work feels like a musical time capsule—equal parts nostalgic and forward-thinking. Tracks like "Heart Change" and "Don't Wake Me Up" showcase her signature blend of breathy vocals, hypnotic guitar work, and lyrics that meditate on transformation, connection, and the quiet magic of everyday life.

Since emerging in the late 2010s, Mokri has become a staple of Canada’s DIY scene, collaborating with artists like Gianna Lauren and releasing through local indie label Forward Music Group. Her recent work, including the gently pulsing "Cycle" and the radiant "Total Love," leans into warm analog synths and looping rhythms, creating a cozy yet expansive vibe that’s earned comparisons to artists like Japanese Breakfast and Hand Habits. Whether she’s crafting labyrinthine instrumentals or intimate vocal-forward ballads, Mokri’s music feels like a shared secret whispered between close friends.
