Rising London based alt pop auteur HEZEN has shared her biting new single 'Bring Your Alibi'.
Raised in Paris, HEZEN has Caribbean, Tamil, and Jewish heritage, and each of these has a role to play in her life.
Spending her teenage years finding escape in fairy tales, myths, and science fiction, her immersion in music coincided with her move to London.
Evocative alt-pop with a sharp sense of melodic attack, HEZEN takes inspiration from the hopes and frustrations of the #MeToo movement on her new single.
'Bring Your Alibi' is a combative return, imagining Lisbeth Salander, protagonist of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, sitting opposite Harvey Weinstein in the courtroom.
She explains: “The #metoo movement had a profound effect on me. It felt like an incredible shift – I remember feeling so much admiration for the people who found the courage to tell their story. I was inspired to channel that resilience and courage – it’s like a feminist retelling of David vs Goliath.”
