Jaz Elise at Flamingo Cantina

Date TBA

Forged under fire and embellished in style and grace, Jaz Elise is set to be Jamaica’s UP NEXT superstar. With a voice that captures the heart and communicates the feelings of any soul, her sound is one that is versatile and unique as she breaks barriers through her genre-bending approach to music. With only three singles out and recently signing to In.Digg.Nation Collective, record label founded by Grammy-nominated artiste Protoje, she is already receiving nods of approval from fans and stalwarts in the industry. In 2020, she updated "Fresh & Clean" with a verse from dancehall sensation Govana. With only a handful of songs in her repertoire and an undeniable knack for fusing soul, R&B, reggae and dancehall, the aspiring singer steps into the spotlight this year with her debut EP The Golden Hour.
