Cardamo

Cardamon Rozzi (or ‘Carδamo’) (They/them) is an artist/producer based in London, whose practice explores themes of identity, trauma, and liberation. Cardamon’s work is built on the foundation of Classical and Jazz musical studies, having been recognised in their adolescence as a well-respected orchestral Violinist and Saxophonist. However, they departed from the traditional music path to pursue music that felt less “polite”. Their music draws from a wide range of influences, from Λαϊκό to Hardcore, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan to Dido. Cementing their work in the canon of other queer contemporaries, Carδamo invites listeners to engage with their own emotional landscapes and experiences of self-discovery.

Having worked independently as a freelancer in all facets of the music industry, Carδamo seeks to carve a space for themselves unapologetically, while encouraging others to do the same. Cardamon currently teaches at ICMP and aims to further continue a parallel career in academia.
