BAND-MAID is a Japanese rock band that has been commanding the global music stage with their unique blend of hard-hitting rock tunes and a maid aesthetic drawn from Japanese maid cafés. Formed in Tokyo in 2013, the band consists of lead vocalist and guitarist SAIKI, guitarist and vocalist MIKU KOBATO, bassist MISA, drummer AKANE, and keyboardist KANAMI. The quintet quickly created a buzz with their concept of serving up thrilling rock music while donning maid costumes, which is a stark contrast to their aggressive and skilled musical performances.

Over the years, BAND-MAID has gained a dedicated following with their powerful instrumentals and dynamic stage presence. Their discography is rich with diverse sounds, showcasing a band that's unafraid to explore different sub-genres within rock. Celebrating their 10th anniversary in 2023, BAND-MAID has released "10th Anniversary Best Vol.1" and "Vol.2," reflective compilations of their journey in music. Recent works such as "Unseen World" and "CONQUEROR" further demonstrate their ability to evolve and push the boundaries of their sound, while singles like "Different," "Sense," and "The Dragon Cries" resonate with international audiences, solidifying BAND-MAID as one of Japan's most exciting rock exports to watch.
