Le Guess Who?

Sevdaliza

The music of visionary Dutch/Iranian-born Sevdaliza is an open and safe arena for human expression. For this Rotterdam-based artist and musician, rigid concepts of sex, gender, image and ethnicity are as fluid as her employment of musical boundaries. Effortlessly, she molds R&B, electronic music, folk, neoclassical and industrial to serve her fearless vocabulary. Leading up to this year’s long-awaited debut LP ISON, Sevdaliza sheds different artistic skins more rapidly than most.
