shiv is a DJ turned singer-songwriter/producer based in Dublin with a unique sound and a varied musical background. Born in Zimbabwe to a musical family and then moving to Ireland at age 5, shiv's sound is influenced by the music that moulded her childhood and mastered by the mindful attention she applies to her craft.


shiv's music is a unique blend of R&B and Low-Fi Hip Hop, with elements of Soul and Neo-Soul. She moves through a wide realm of genres & influences, and carries parts of them with her to create music that is fresh, emotive, and brimming with feeling. In recent years shiv's work has captured the attention of UK and Irish radio stations such as 2FM and BBC, as well as being featured in Hotpress, Goldenplec, and COLORSXSTUDIOS. In 2021 shiv has moved up in the Irish music scene and beyond, and continues amid a challenging new musical environment to soothe us with her silky-sweet voice, soulful lyrics, and warm hazy instrumentals.
