With a knack for catchy, earworm-like melodies, Khazali has created a brand of pop that spans melancholy, euphoria and dreaminess, not unlike the instantly relatable sounds of Arlo Parks, Dua Lipa and Alfie Templeman, with an indie edge reminiscent of The xx and Metronomy.
His debut EP, Going Home, Vol. 1, released in April 2021 via Kitsuné Musique grew quickly to become the label’s top performing new release.
The EP also aroused a keen curiosity from a breadth of tastemakers, landing him coveted spots on Awkwafina’sTV show Awkwafina is Nora from Queens, Spotify’s top-tier playlists such as Chill Dance, Alt R&B, Alt-Pop andIbiza Sunset – as well as consistent support from BBCRadio 1, 1xtra, and selected for BBC Introducing’s“Hot List”.
In January 2022, Khazali followed the footsteps of Griff, PinkPanthress and Joy Crookes when it was announced that Spotify would be championing the artist as part of their RADAR programme.
