ELIZZA on her forthcoming EP release
At just 18 years old, ELIZZA relocated to London to fulfil her dream of becoming a professional musician and artist, making use of her ample talents as a singer and songwriter to build a career in the music industry. Developing a truly unique sound that floats between genres – “not just pop and not just R&B” – she has described her music as “dreamy, poetic, and honest”, merging innovative pop production and EDM inflections with a natural talent for crafting catchy choruses and melodic hooks. ELIZZA’s latest recording, “London Eyes”, was released in September 2020.
