“‘Billie Zizi is not just a studied, accomplished and diverse musician. She is a bridge between the generation before her who have made Edmonton a music centre, and the emerging artists who are developing with her. When Billie embarks on a project it is not simply another recording or tour. She is a nucleus around which a community forms and grows. Her resume speaks volumes about the respect she has as a musician and the respect she gives to the scene’ -Chris Martin Associate producer, CBC Radio ”

BIO

Effusive and thoughtful, without pretense yet still above board, Billie Zizi carves a distinct path marked by sonic abandon and a wild spirit. Now on her third studio album [Levitate, Oct 2024], she continues to prove herself as an exciting emergent voice in contemporary music. The album dances gently through illusions of kaleidoscopic colour with Zizi’s masterful vocal prowess in full bloom. Fans of musical alchemists akin to Khrunangbin or Glass Animals can expect melodic charms rife throughout the ten track run time. Listeners are treated to decorative and unpredictable cadences, poetic prowess and tasty mid-tempo rockers, creating an airy, indie-Americana atmosphere that feels ethereal and whimsical.
