Over her 16-year journey in India’s music circuit, she has developed a style influenced by
greats like Cyrille Aimée, Jane Monheit, Cécile McLorin Salvant, and Diana Krall.
She holds a Master’s in Healthcare Administration (MHA) and built a successful career in the
healthcare industry before transitioning into music full-time. Music runs in her blood -
raised by a professional singer mother and a seasoned bass guitarist father, Zian began
performing in her family’s band at a young age. Her passion for jazz led her to study jazz
vocals in Germany and the Netherlands, under the mentorship of Sabine Kühlich, vocal head at
Conservatorium Maastricht.
Zian has graced prestigious stages such as NCPA, Prithvi Theatre, Soho House, Quorum, Slink
& Bardot, Jolie’s, Bonobo, and several luxury hotels. She’s performed at music festivals,
corporate events, and private showcases across India, sharing the stage with artists like
Louiz Banks, Gino Banks, Sanjay Divecha, Guy Bernfeld, Joe Alvares, Adrian D’Souza, Satyajit
Talwalkar, and Purbayan Chatterjee. She has also collaborated with Bombay Jazz Club and lent
her voice to commercial projects for brands like Amazon, Mebaaz, and theme song for American
Idol.
