Zeta Wave To Premiere New EP `Waltz’ at Hotel Café EP Release Show; Collaboration With MSMR’s Zach Nicita Drops Oct. 14 [VIDEO]

Zeta Wave will release "Waltz," her debut six-track EP on October 14, 2014. Indie-pop singer Songwriter Zeta Wave, which is the musical AKA for Aliya Hashemi, released the lyric video to YouTube last month.

For the new EP, Aliya was been working with Zach Nicita, who lays down the beat as drummer for NICITA and MSMR, a band that has been described as "New York's hottest pop export." Zach drummed on The Late Show with David Letterman last year with MSMR.  

Zeta Wave describes her musical genre as bedroom dance pop which should please fans of Robyn, Marina and The Diamonds, and Ellie Goulding. ZetaWave has been compared to artists like Feist, Ingrid Michaelson, Goldfrapp, and Robyn.

Zeta Wave, a singer-songwriter from Seattle, recently moved to Los Angeles where she continued writing, and eventually recorded the songs for her debut EP titled "Over."

Aliya grew up singing and playing music throughout her childhood, where she started playing piano, guitar, and flute by age 12. Her music is informed from inspirations as diverse A Tribe Called Quest, The Beatles, and Fiona Apple.

The first single off the EP, "Strange Heartbeat" is about a recent drawn-out breakup. "Waltz," another track off the EP, is about finding and losing yourself in a love that is larger than you, that which is always with you and transcends the day-to-day happenings that can bog you down.

Zeta Wave is giving the single away as a free download for a limited time on https://zetawave.bandcamp.com/
