Zhala’s haunting and evocative melodies are packed with a serious punch, full of thought-provoking lyrics and undeniable hooks. Using the Swedish capital as her base but with the mindset of a modern day transnational, Zhala’s music is futuristic, labeled by the artist herself as “cosmic pop.”
Born and raised in Stockholm, Sweden, Zhala (Rifat) became very involved in the local art and club scene during her late teens. She further developed her talents as an artist through dance, singing and her live shows; a path which eventually led to her being signed to Konichiwa Records. While recording the music for her first release, Zhala continued to tour - playing several festivals (Bestival, Isle of Wight, Way Out West), a unique performance at the Jean Paul Gaultier exhibit at Moderna Museet, and most recently, an opening slot for Robyn in London, Berlin and Stockholm.
