YAZ

YAZ (She/her) is a South East London-based singer whose music bridges her Palestinian roots with the city’s vibrant contemporary jazz scene. Born in France and raised trilingually—Arabic, French, and English—she crafts a sound that is both intimate and expansive, drawing on the richness of her cultural background. Influenced by artists like Fairuz, Yebba and the storytelling tradition of French chanson, YAZ creates music that explores themes of grief, memory, and emotional resilience. Her lyrics, rooted in Arab poetic traditions, unfold over immersive, spacious soundscapes that resonate with emotional depth.

She has performed at renowned venues such as Ronnie Scott’s, St Pancras Old Church, The Tabernacle, and the Southbank Centre.
