Otay:onii

Booking Agent : Ricky Biondetti & Federico Zanatta

Otay:onii (Lane Shi) is a multifaceted artist originally from Haining, China, previously nesting in New York and currently based in Berlin. Her artistic practice spans across music, performance, installation, and film composition.

Otay’s work has received recognition and accolades, including the bronze prize for “Best Female Vocalist” from Global Music Awards, and “Best Sound” from the Audiovisual Arts Industrial Incubator Awards. Performance pieces like “Unwrap!” at the Ming Contemporary Art Museum exemplifies her concept of “bio instruments.” Through performances at festivals like CTM and Roadburn Festival, Otay:onii navigates profound discussions, from humor to the poignant realities of third-world immigrants, sharing the rooted eastern perspectives to the western world in an attempt to bridge the divides.

Her acclaimed albums, including “NAG” (2018), “MíngMíng 冥冥” (2021), and “Dream Hacker” (2023), defy conventional structures and put emphasizes on philosophies extracted from living experiences, with her upcoming release “True Faith Ain’t Blind” poised to challenge established norms between classical and metal with acoustic piano and voice.

She believes in echos, and “solving a puzzle with another puzzle that can’t be seen, be touched, but to feel.”
