Azim Zain

Music – Canberra

Born in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Azim started music when he listened to Green Day\'s American Idiot and Blink-182\'s self-titled album, inspiring him to learn the drums and eventually guitar. Over the years, he eventually got the hang of singing and began writing songs as well. Encouraged in year 12 by music teachers, Azim finally took his music beyond the bedroom in 2011. Bringing with him an acoustic guitar and a heartfelt, almost-confessional approach to songwriting, tackling personal topics ranging from cultural identity crises to combating sadness, Azim hopes people will enjoy his intimate performances from each whisper to every scream. Azim also hopes people will forgive him for referring to himself in the 3rd-person.
