AKI is a powerful blend of jazz, art pop, and salon music—rich in atmosphere and driven by Cadotsch’s unmistakable voice: subtle, intense, and emotionally direct. The band operates as a creative collective, reimagining each other's compositions in a way that gives all members space to shine. The result is music full of soul, texture, and individuality. Cadotsch often draws inspiration from social themes and iconic female figures—from Medusa to Rosa Luxemburg—reflecting her experience as a bandleader in a male-dominated scene. Even the project name AKI, a non-binary name used for boys in Finland and girls in Japan, speaks to her interest in breaking down rigid categories—both in life and in music.
