Interpreting dance music with a freestyle, pop-tastic flair, ranging in style from electro, disco, techno, dub and RnB, one thing`s for sure: its bound to be funky!! Sonically, she first appeared on the scene with the release of "Je Me Mentis," in 2002, a toxic-dub 12 inch produced by Sasa Crnobrnja and Alex Gloor, released on their label Codek Records. As a singer her sound is a fusion of styles, one which has been described by XLR8R Magazine as "a cross pollination of dirty booty bass, dubby No Wave, (and electric RnB) sung with sexy, irreverent lyrics." Live, she's a one woman kamikaze - a commanding presence, G.rizo brings a delivery that is raw, bold and soulful. Recently G.rizo has collaborated with Gerhard Potuznik (G.D.Luxxe), Patrick Pulsinger, Trio Exklusiv, I-Wolf & Birdy, Dubblestandart, Daniel Givens and In Flagranti. Currently G.rizo works material for an upcoming full length record. Look for a brand new single from G.rizo entitled “Eye-Wanna-C-U` to be released on the mighty International DJ Gigolo Records with a remix by Patrick Pulsinger.
