Hazel Hymnz is a fresh new genre-bending voice across alt-R&B, hip-hop soul, dance, and pop music, drawing from the diversity of her hometown in the coastal Arverne neighborhood of Queens, NYC. Her stage name is inspired by the church hymns she grew up singing growing up in Queens.

Hazel first introduced herself through “Girl from Arverne,” an intro track and visual tribute to her hometown, blending gritty New York ambition with the reflective energy of the coast. Now, she continues building her world with her debut soulful house single “In My World,” an uplifting dance record about love, healing, and finding color in life through another person. It’s followed by “Trouble in Paradise,” a genre-blending English-language track mixing Latin influences, UK garage rhythms, dance music, and emotional storytelling about a relationship beginning to unravel.

Inspired by artists like Alicia Keys, Rihanna, Mary J. Blige, Jazmine Sullivan, and J. Cole, Hazel’s music combines vulnerability, warmth, and real-life storytelling with modern production rooted in both the club and the soul.

Outside of music, Hazel’s usually rooting for the Knicks and Coco Gauff, shopping, cooking, or writing lyrics somewhere between the beach and the city.
