Revolutionary songwriter and violinist, Diana Yukawa has released her EP on 18th March 2013.Finding the Parallel; Out NOW: Buy/Listen on iTunes
The British artist has released 3 tracks, My Way Home, Juno and City of Shadows, worldwide (excluding Japan) digitally under the title Finding the Parallel.
The London based Violinist has released three albums through Sony Music, the first when she was just 14 years old. Her last album “The Butterfly Effect” released in 2009 features original music co-written by the violinist. Yukawa comments “whilst the sound of the last album is rather different to the new material, The Butterfly Effect was really a great stride forward in establishing my future music direction”.
The violinist has led an extraordinary life. Born in Tokyo to an English ballet dancer and a Japanese banker just 3 weeks after the 1985 Japan Airlines disaster that took her father’s life, she has crossed cultural boundaries in her personal life and is pushing to cross even further in her professional life as a much celebrated violinist and songwriter.
“My goal is to create music that connects with listeners and to also reach people who perhaps wouldn't ordinarily listen to my kind of music, or more "classical" and instrumental music. I want my music to evoke emotions.. it's really as simple as that.”
Finding the Parallel, the EP is available to download from 18th March 2013 - Buy/Listen on iTunes
