Wooly Aziz (formerly known as Wooly and the Uke) is a solo project by Jannat Sohail, suitably described as “left-field electronic” by Rolling Stone and “soulful synth” with an “immersive atmosphere” by others. The project explores a larger genre spectrum, preserving groove and lyrical storytelling at its foundation.
Listed in the Alternative Power 100 Music List (2020) by the sheaid.so collective, under the theme of Resilience and Adaptability, Wooly and the Uke’s upcoming album Bluelight Moonlight promises to showcase the emotional arc of war and identity politics in a foreign land. The narrative carries from the first track called Take Off to the last one called Landing. The sound can be hinted towards by prominent influences such as <a href="spotify:artist:2YZyLoL8N0Wb9xBt1NhZWg" data-name="Kendrick Lamar">Kendrick Lamar</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4CvTDPKA6W06DRfBnZKrau" data-name="Thom Yorke">Thom Yorke</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:7w29UYBi0qsHi5RTcv3lmA" data-name="Björk">Björk</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:3g2kUQ6tHLLbmkV7T4GPtL" data-name="Fiona Apple">Fiona Apple</a>, set to release in 2023.
Born in Pakistan, Wooly and the Uke rose to fame with Pakistan’s nationally celebrated “first” all-female ensemble, airing in the television series Nescafe Basement, Season 4. There onward, she parted from commercial endeavors to explore and deconstruct her individual sonic atmospheres, releasing her debut track Circus.
In 2021, she moved to Berlin to pursue her residency with Pop-Kultur, breaking the echo chamber to invite an expansive electronic palette and continuous discovery of experimentation. From her earlier work to her upcoming single, Take it a Little Easy, Wooly and the Uke is progressively giving us a taste of her newfound, soul narrative.
