Born in 1988, she first released music under the alias Throwing Shade before switching to her real name for her debut album Weighing of the Heart (2017). Her work blends indie, alternative, electronic and experimental influences, and she’s also known for long-running radio shows on NTS and the BBC. Alongside her recording career, Iqbal tours internationally as both a live artist and DJ. She has performed worldwide — including festival and club appearances across Europe, the Americas, Asia and Australasia — and played major Australian shows for the first time in early 2024 while touring her album Dreamer.
