Zarina Kazi

British South Asian artist Zarina Kazi uses Music as a navigational tool for life. As a British Pakistani woman Zarina often found it difficult to identify and relate to others, but she found comfort in writing Music. Music became the language through which Zarina would express her deepest fears, dreams, and triumphs and it ultimately connected her back to herself. Her love for music started at home, where her grandparents were music enthusiasts. She honours them by continuing to pursue music and share their passions. In the intricate realm of music, Zarina uses juxtaposition in her first release Preacher, a song touching on betrayal, yearning and toxic hope. Created at seventeen and developed many years later, Preacher marks the beginning of Zarina’s music career. Influenced by artists from Amy Winehouse, Adele, Billie Eilish, and Jorja Smith, through lyrical resonance and harmonious melodies, Zarina’s music encapsulates raw emotions and offers a soundtrack to our experiences.
