Shaz grew up in South Florida listening to Nat King Cole, Etta James, and Nancy Sinatra while taking classical piano lessons since she was 5. She now lives in Austin, Texas, and is ready to get us on her own neo-soul/r&b/lofi train, starting with the EP Inside Out.

The cinematic instrumental in "Deadly Baby" is formed by the UK-based lofi producer AJMW. The saxophone curved by the TX-based musician Dan Cohen floats above it and between the soulful vocals by Shaz. Inspired by the confidence and independence she embraced, she got out of the box and allowed herself to experiment and share her art. And we're all here to listen.
