BAND-MAID

BAND-MAID is a Japanese hard rock band formed in Tokyo in 2013, known for contrasting maid-café outfits with powerful, riff-driven rock. The concept came from founder Miku Kobato, who previously worked at a maid café in Akihabara. With albums such as "Unseen World" (2021) and "Epic Narratives" (2024), the quintet has built an international following.
