Meet September's Artist of The Month, Taz

Her sound pulses with the same magnetic energy as Britain’s brightest stars, Olivia Dean and Raye, hinting that Taz is destined to join their ranks in the near future.

Bursting onto the scene last year, Taz has quickly become a favourite in the neo-soul and R&B world. Her innovative approach to creating music has landed her spots on multiple Spotify editorial playlists, along with track of the day on BBC Introducing. In the larger narrative of neo-soul’s digital-age renaissance, Taz’s rise reflects the genre’s current cultural shift towards new, diverse voices pushing the boundaries of what soul music can be.

Taz is on a path to superstardom. Her dreamy harmonies and soft vocals create a tranquil atmosphere, allowing you to lose yourself in her musical world. It is music that soothes your soul.

Throughout her music, you can hear her musical inspirations like Nina Simone, Lauryn Hill, and Amy Winehouse. She honours their music through hers by providing space for their impact alongside her innovations. If you really want to explore her music and get to know Taz as a musician, head to her YouTube page to find live performances of nearly every release. These performances bring out a new side to her music and truly display her vocal abilities.

In just under a year, she has released four singles, including ‘Honey’ and ‘Sunday Morning’, that are featured on her upcoming EP. Her musical style resonates with the essence of Britain's current biggest stars, Olivia Dean and Raye. There is no doubt that she will follow in their footsteps in the years to come.

You can catch Taz performing at The Stars of Shoreditch on October 16th! And her brand new single ‘Boomerang’ is out today.
