The Evolution of Zayd Continues
Zayd is a raw force in modern rock and metal — a troubadour of the Canadian frontier who turns the chaos of life and love into pure sound. His music snaps between aggressive emo-rock power chords and soul-baring melodies, pulling listeners into a whirlwind of emotion.
For Zayd, music isn’t just art — it’s armor, it’s fire, it’s defiance.
"I’m a musician, a songwriter, and I’ve had enough of people telling me it can’t be done. My music is a declaration to the world that I’m going to truly be myself!"
Since launching in 2020, Zayd has racked up over 400,000 streams on Spotify, 500,000 views on YouTube, and earned features on CTV, CBC Radio, and Stingray Loud. His songs are spinning on local radio stations across the globe — from Canada to Germany, the UK to Brazil, the USA to Mexico — rallying a growing army of fans worldwide.
Along the way, he’s earned recognition with nominations including:
2021 Radio Wigwam (UK): Indie Rock Artist of the Year
2021 SaskMusic: Video of the Year
2022, 2023 & 2024 SaskMusic: Metal Artist of the Year
2024 Radio Wigwam (UK): International Artist of the Year
Zayd isn’t slowing down. He’s taking the world head-on — writing fearless new music, pouring heart and grit into every lyric, and delivering hard-hitting videos that leave a mark.
With the strength of what he's built and a fire for what’s ahead, Zayd pushes forward. Fans get an all-access pass to his journey, as he live streams performances and connects regularly on YouTube, Twitch, Instagram, and Facebook @thisizzayd.
"Each song, each story has the power to connect with people. Take what you need from it — and push on."
