Izabel
Bio
Izabel is Ugandan singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. She navigates the developing hybrid sound on the African music scene in Uganda by applying her melodies and writing style to a sound outside the definitive genre, in an attitude of exploration and non-conformity.
She aims to vulnerably tell the story of the intricacies of the every day human experience in the context of a post-colonial Ugandan generation with her own life. Her artistic vision is to articulate content, performance and a sound that comprehensively represents the evolving Ugandan musical aesthetic in its urban-hybrid dimensions. She hopes to use her art to inspire the acknowledgement of a perspective that appreciates the relevance of art in the community, in life and on a journey as an artist and as a Ugandan.
She launched her career in 2016 with the release of her debut EP project Chaotic Heart. She wen ton to release her sophomore EPBronte in 2017 and other collaborative projects with Ugandan artists like TheSeptembaKid, IzayatheComposer, Nutty Neithan and Kenneth Mugabi.
Her debut album Little Grown-Up Child was released in November 2020.
