KAZE - aka Japanese speaking opera graduate Amy Webber - is one of Manchester's exciting new prog-pop artists. Webber trained as an opera singer for 6 years before rebelling to follow her pop calling. She brings theatrical performance and soaring vocals to KAZE's definitive and genre bending music. KAZE have been hailed as “fresh-sounding, future-facing” by BBC 6 Music’s Tom Robinson and praised by BBC Radio Scotland’s Vic Galloway for their “syncopated prog-pop”. 
Despite being a brand new act, KAZE have already secured airplay on BBC 6 Music, BBC Radio Scotland (Single of the Week), BBC Radio Manchester, BBC Radio Oxford and Amazing Radio. The self-directed one-take music video for 'Pinned On You', their debut single, made ‘Video of the Month’ on OurStage and consequently KAZE were selected as ‘Artist of the week’ for Richer Unsigned. KAZE are currently preparing their debut album, set for release in 2020.

“A vibrant, edgy, unusual kind of sound”” - Tom Robinson (BBC 6 Music)

"KAZE are powerful live performers who draw heavily on a theatrical sensitivity. Backed up with a steady release of well recorded, intelligent, high energy songs, they create a unique live experience."- Gavin Sharp (CEO Band On The Wall)

"That's really quite something isn't it? Operatic, off-kilter, syncopated prog-pop" - Vic Galloway BBC Radio Scotland

"That is pretty darn tasty" - Jim Gellatly (XFM, Amazing Radio)

"Superb alternative-pop song... full of surprises" - Rob Lewis (CEO Richer Unsigned) 

"Fingerprints of Steely Dan & Fleetwood Mac" - Colin Towns (Ian Gillan Band)

Original soul collective on a mission from Manchester to produce the perfect single

Mancunian music-maker Ellen Beth Abdi uses live loops, pokey drums, undulating synths and quietly subversive lyrics to mould her unique sound.

‘Potent and lyrical electronic soul with a social conscience. For the thinkers and the movers of this dimension and others’.

Ellen's self produced solo album is set for release next year.
