Anahita Skye has a unique sound that is a modern blend of sultry rock and melodic pop with an infusion of soulful undertones emanating from her Middle Eastern roots. Her music has been likened to Nirvana meets Ellie Goulding.

Felice LaZae’s “Give It Away” EP is rich with the seductive sounds of the blues, and every song highlights her soulful, commanding vocals.
