| Aziza Vocals / Opera / Metal / Progressive Rock
Grand Rapids, MI Singer, composer, actress
SINGER & ACTRESS
My name is Aziza A. Poggi and I'm a classically trained singer in which I perform in a progressive metal band called Dendura. My voice has progressed since these recordings but I promise I will put some music up shortly showing my opera and classical roots soon. Dendura mixes in Egyptian / middle eastern sounds in our music to give it a different flavor (I am part Lebanese and Egyptian). My bands music has been featured in Monsters Ballz on Comedy Central and several independent films including award winning films. We are currently recording our next album with Grammy award winning producer Neil Kernon (Queensryche, Nevermore, Tapping the Vein, Dokken). I also am an actress when my time allows. I have been in over 15 films, several commercials and also taught acting and was a casting assistant (61-Billy Crystal HBO, Hardball, Keanu Reeves & Diane Lane, Paramount Pictures). I am an eccentric person, prefer complex and the kooky roles over the norm and have alot of life experience to bring a characters personality and truth to the project. I work hard and I play hard and am proud to be smoke and drug free.
My band Dendura also scores music for films if you'd like to here clips, please send me an email at dendura@gmail.com
