“The sound generated by Liza’s cyborg recorder is like nothing I’ve heard before….classical elements merge with jazz, folk, psychedelia, ambient and electronica….such an exciting project that you can easily get lost in it.” York Calling

“As imaginative and alive as the name suggests – this is like the music from a kaleidoscopic tale you read as a child, listen to this and embark on a wonderful adventure.” MusicnGear

“A wonderfully engrossing story that packs a huge punch. Readers’ Favorite

Liza writes stories and makes music to bring them to life.

What do rocks hear as they melt?

How does it feel to experience a seizure?

Liza built their own instrument, the robo-recorder, to create sonic answers to these questions. The roborecorder is featured in the Manchester Museum of Science and Industry’s 2022 exhibition Turn It Up: The Power of Music and was chosen to be included in the BBC Radio 6 Museum. Hear more about Liza in this feature created for New Scientist magazine.

Liza produces original and unusual music from their studio, Anarres. They are also an accomplished writer and performer, fusing electronic recorder improvisation, spoken word and percussion in their monthly serial fiction podcast, Spiral Dial.
