Izzy Bizu returns with the first single, “Faded,” off her upcoming sophomore album. Produced by Matt Furmidge and Alex Smith, this is a glorious disco-soul hybrid that lands somewhere between the Bee Gees and Jessie Ware. “I can’t say that it won’t fall apart,” Izzy begins the song. “We both know it’d be a lie if we left with no goodbye.”
That takes us to the propulsive chorus. “I’m feeling high, yeah I’m feeling low, the 26-year-old belts. “When you say goodbye I already know, I’m feeling faded.” What inspired the retro banger? In a nutshell, not knowing what you want from someone. “It’s one of those weird feelings — when you’re with them you feel faded, but when you’re without them you feel faded in another way,” Izzy explains. “And you can’t decide if you want them in or out of your life.” Listen to addictive anthem below. Hopefully, the album isn’t too far away.

The Arizona-born Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, extends a warm invite to a place smack dab in the middle of Nashville and Laurel Canyon, on her new single and forthcoming album, Calico – short for “California Country.”
Landing her first big break as top 5 finalist on season 7 of American Idol, millions of viewers formed an emotional bond and welcomed her barefoot-at-the-piano style into their homes on a weekly basis.
While singer-songwriters from the golden era of the 70s attributed to her sound, it was the influence of the country legends she grew up listening to that came soaring through her vocals.
