“There’s no doubt she’s a talented, gifted woman in the indie music business and her intentions through every song go from being honest, loud, and catchy to extremely vulnerable.” - TunedLoud Review

artist bio

Songstress & rock vocalist hailing from Atlanta GA, Anji Kaizen (aw-nee k-eye-zen) is the front woman & mastermind of a project that ranges from angsty alternative rock to upbeat indie pop in the veins of Halsey, Avril Lavigne, Paramore, Chvrches & Pvris. With powerhouse vocals, soaring melodic lines & shredding guitar riffs, each song is a unique journey through a soundscape of raw emotion. Inspired by artists such as Lights, Hayley Williams & Ellie Goulding, Anji Kaizen's songs are intimate & poetic confessions that bring refreshing honesty with thick vocal layers & big hooks.

Her previous releases range from being a featured vocalist on EDM, rock & trance tracks to her upbeat alt-pop Light EP & the guitar-driven and moody Dark EP. A full-time professional artist who not only sings, songwrites, & plays a plethora of instruments, she’s also been recognized for her abilities as a composer & producer by winning the LaGrange Film Festival award for her original soundtrack. Pair this with winning recording time at the Columbus Songwriter Showcase & receiving the Griff Parrish Songwriting award, it’s clear she has already established herself as an important voice in the Atlanta music scene since she began playing with her backing band in 2018.

Her unique talents immediately propelled her into the stage lights after graduating Magna Cum Laude with a BA in Composition & Music technology in 2015. Her first release, “Titanic,” an emotional electropop ballad, became the single that kick-started her career as it garnered world-wide attention as the credit song for the indie film “Crimson Tower” playing at international film festivals. This was followed by a headlining show at The Masquerade and a string of shows across the state, including venues such as The Vinyl, Eddie’s Attic, Canopy + The Roots & more.

Sonic Smoothie - "Anji, The Alt Pop Princess of Atlanta" https://www.sonicsmoothie.com/post/anji-the-alt-pop-princess-of-atlanta-on-her-new-single-you-ll-find-me - "The first time I heard "You'll Find Me", I went bananas trying to figure out where I'd heard it before. The song is so instantly familiar, I couldn't believe it wasn't a cover (even as I type this, I'm triple checking to make sure I'm correct)."

Conscious Electronic - "Scales & Anji Kaizen Craft Addictive Spaceship Ride 'Outer Orbit' Premiere" https://consciouselectronic.com/2021/06/25/scales-outer-orbit-ce-premiere/ - "Scales has enlisted the serene vocals of fellow ATL resident, songstress, and newcomer Anji Kaizen. The two come together in perfect harmony with Scales taking the liberty of playing heavily with her vocals for optimal reverb, creating a hypnotic echo and expansive fx. At the same time, Kaizen’s vocals still pave the entire way as listeners cling to her angelic voice."

York Calling - "Discovery: Anji Kaizen" https://yorkcalling.co.uk/2021/06/12/discovery-anji-kaizen/ - "Anji Kaizen is an American pop singer and songwriter – Center is her latest catchy song to be released... Anji has a great singing voice and the simplistic chorus helps to give it an anthemic feel – after a couple of listens Center should soon be stuck firmly in listeners heads."
