Iris Zhang

Sad girl folk pop

Auckland

A singer with an acoustic guitar isn’t exactly groundbreaking or wholly original, but I do my best to be “authentic”, to create connections with my audience and offer a point of shared experience.

Born in Beijing and raised in New Zealand, Iris Zhang is an multi-instrumentalist singer songwriter with a strikingly soulful voice and a rare gift for story-telling. She is known for her charming stage presence and trademark delivery: effortlessly romantic with a touch of ennui. Over the past few years, Iris has cultivated a dedicated fanbase online through her diverse repertoire of acoustic covers. These days, Iris writes about fairy tales, mental health, being Other, heartbreaks and small aches.
