JAZ PATERSON – 20TH AUGUST – FREE EVENT!

“By crafting alternative pop beats with contemporary R&B vocals, gifted singer-songwriter Jaz Paterson delivers refreshingly original music that instantly captivates and intrigues. The New Zealand based alternative pop artist draws on influences from the likes of Banks, Tove Lo, James Blake and Bon Iver, to develop a spellbinding, yet honest and confessional style of music that explores the intricacies of various production techniques. Jaz’s impressive vocals and song writing prowess have recently been showcased on a variety of tracks in different genres – a UK house inspired collaboration with local kiwi artists Rei and Sean Richards, a Dancefloor DnB track with producer duo “Melt”, and most recently, a collaboration with MC Tali. Recent performances have included a set at Rolling Meadows 2022, Jaz’s first five date NZ tour in April 2022, and a headline show at Space Academy Christchurch. After being selected for the Artist Development Program, SOLE teamed Jaz up with Will McGillivray (Nomad) to record and produce her EP ACHE. Sniffers blog wrote of the EP – “‘Ache’ is a deeply introspective release for the Christchurch based songstress. Across ‘Ache’, Paterson shares a touching sense of vulnerability. Unpacking complex ideas with a sense of poise, Paterson showcases a fantastic display in song writing. Paterson has begun to make a name for herself with her authentic take on contemporary indie-pop”.
