about

London-based singer-songwriter Hoian is back with her enchanting new single, ‘Waves’.

‘Waves’ is a brooding song about navigating the ups and downs of mental health and leaning on people closest to you for support. Its hazy sound draws on the likes of Portishead, James Blake and Blonde Redhead for inspiration.

The track was entirely written and produced at home by Hoian, mixed by Cristian Perugino and mastered by Matt Colton (James Blake, Sampha, Arlo Parks, Little Simz).

Hoian is the musical project of Zena Zerai, a musician and producer of Guyanese and Eritrean heritage, born on Merseyside and now living in South London. She combines influences from the likes of Radiohead, Sharon Van Etten and Sault to create a powerful, melancholy sound that defies categorization.
