Hannah Macklin is a vocalist, musician, composer and performer, with both contemporary and classical training and a jazz degree from the QLD Conservatorium of Music. For the past decade she has written, recorded and toured with a plethora of musicians spanning various genres and outfits providing vocals, keys and bass duties and straddling the crossover between street and academia. 

As an artist creating original work and incorporating electronic, visual, theatrical and dance elements into her live shows, Hannah has established a reputation for providing audiences with exciting and transcendent experiences. Major performance highlights include CMJ Music Marathon in NYC (2014), Shanghai World Expo (2010), Sydney International Mardi Gras (2016) and Big Day Out (2014). More locally, she has continued to perform consistently at grassroots events.

Always maintaining a keen focus on her own original creations, Hannah has used multiple aliases (including MKO Sun, Bastard Amber, Laik and Ha Na) to express her creativity.

Based currently in Meanjin, Hannah is writing for and fronting her band, which features heavyweight players Brandon Mamata (guitar), Peta Wilson (keys), Steele Chabau (bass) and Sam Mitchell (drums). Their sound ranges from moments of gentle introspection to raucous metal-tinged mayhem and invites R&B, jazz and punk influences into a progressive pop/rock context, with Hannah's trademark voice leading the adventures. This band is nothing short of exceptional. 

Hannah is also part of a trio called "Deyga", led by tabla player Dheeraj Shrestha and is a lecturer at the QLD Conservatorium of Music.
