Tsarzi

A fiend on the keys with the voice of a cracked angel, Tsarzi’s unique blend of cabaret chic and eccentric pop has garnered regular comparisons with piano and vocal luminaries including Nina Simone, Kate Bush, Regina Spector and Amanda Palmer.

Weaving darkly humorous lyrics with observations both mundane and profound, she sings intimate character portraits of people lost in the cracks.

Her debut album <a href="spotify:album:05rDYtXPuDHZD0CuKxaM3I" data-name="Last Decade of Love">Last Decade of Love</a> (2018) was heralded as an ‘an eccentric and striking debut’ (Pink Wafer) and received BBC 6Music radio play, with Tom Robinson calling her track <a href="spotify:track:0GVw7dqQeJE171X7WeCaX9" data-name="Bad Indie Movie">Bad Indie Movie</a> the most imaginative thing he heard that year.

Her music video Ornaments (with WI Productions) won the Grand Jury prize at the South Yorkshire Filmmakers Network 2Weeks2MakeIt competition 2017.

Her next project in development is Gone To The Dogs, an affectionately nightmarish reflection on Britain’s imperial nostalgia and obsession with The War(s), as presented by a faded Britannia.
