Tamzene

Tamzene is a singer-songwriter from the coastal town of Cromarty in the Scottish

Highlands. Her unique mix of Jamaican and Irish heritage encouraged an immersion in

soul, funk, R&B and reggae from an early age, with her initial influences coming from

hearing Roberta Flack, Aretha Franklin and Nina Simone songs played around her

home before progressing to contemporary artists like Matt Corby, Melody Gardot and

Solange.

Tamzene returns this Summer 2024, with her latest EP, ‘In Any Weather’, musically her

most multi-faceted release to date. Co-written and produced with a host of top

collaborators including Eg White (Adele, Sam Smith), Steph Marziano (Hayley Williams,

Matilda Mann), and Jimmy Hogarth (Amy Winehouse, Sia), the project delves into

Tamzene’s own journey of self-discovery: offering an intimate and personal view into

her experiences of work, youth, love, and relationships.

Since releasing her debut single, ‘accidentally told you’, in 2020, Tamzene’s music has

been streamed around 8 million times and has received support from Spotify (New

Music Friday UK, Your Kitchen Stereo, Easy Chilled Pop Hits, Pop UK) and Apple

Music (New Music Daily, New in Pop, Breaking Acoustic). Tamzene has received

plaudits from local and national tastemakers, including BBC Radio 1 (Jack Saunders,

Victoria Jane), BBC Radio 6 (Morning After Mix), BBC Radio Scotland (Single of the

Week), CLASH Magazine, The Line Of Best Fit, The Glasgow Times (interview) and

The Line Of Best Fit (interview). She recently played to a sold out audience at the Lower

Third in London, having previously supported the likes of Adele, James Bay, Jack

Garratt, Katie Melua and Tom Jones.
