Carmen Maki (Japanese: カルメン・マキ, Hepburn: Karumen Maki, May 18, 1951), born Maki Annette Lovelace,[1] is a Japanese singer and lyricist, whose career spans more than five decades. After debuting as a folk singer in 1969 with the million-selling single "Toki ni wa Haha no Nai Ko no Yō ni", she quickly shifted to rock music and is best known for fronting the band Oz from 1972 to 1977. Maki was one of the first female rock vocalists in Japan,[2][3] and her work with Oz and Blues Creation has been credited with pioneering Japanese rock in general.[4][5]
