A singer-songwriter born on May 18, 1957, she was considered a rival to Miyuki Nakajima at the time of her debut.

Known for tirelessly performing live, Hako Yamasaki’s appeal lies in the positive sense of “darkness in her songs” that moves people’s hearts.

Here is a collection of some of her popular tracks.

Listening to this song, I was convinced Hako Yamasaki was from Yamagata, but she’s actually from Kyushu.

She is a close friend of Eri Watanabe, who is from Yamagata, and she composed the song.

The occasion was the 55th anniversary of the founding of Shirataka Town in Yamagata Prefecture, with lyrics by political journalist Yasuhiro Tase, who hails from Shirataka.

The charm lies in the world of Yamagata Prefecture and the mysterious character that Hako Yamasaki embodies.

This song, Mikazuki, is one of the tracks on an album by Hako Yamasaki, who sang the scary song Noroi—once even used as the ending theme for the beloved national anime Chibi Maruko-chan.

To be honest, it’s not as scary as Noroi, but the lyrics are a bit dark… Still, that’s part of what makes Hako so great.
