Biography
SHAZE is a dynamic dynasty, which comprises of twin sisters, Sidoney and Simoney and sister, Dionne. This distinct trio carries the heart of Christ and seeks only to spread the gospel through music. Born in Kingston Jamaica, the intricate honing of their craft began in the church at St. Catherine, where they were also raised. Inevitably, as they began singing, their unique artistry made an indelible mark and sketched an unforgettable terrain in the hearts of all who listened. At the tender ages of four and five, they decided to join forces with two cousins; thus the group"The Chaunteurs" was formed; which means singers in French. This group was also formed with the help of Tudi- Ann Chambers who later became the manager. The signature sound of their accapella presentations effortlessly drew many people to them. Like the effect of a wild fire the intensity of success came knocking on their doors. They embraced an opportunity to sing on the infamous Love FM (Christian Radio Jamaica W.I.) This became a spring board in their ministry for years to come. This infectious appearance was greatly received and undoubtedly the entire Jamaican audience displayed an insatiable appetite for their music and this led to numerous invitations of varied events. Years progressed and at the height of their music ministry, they migrated to the United States. Leaving behind their cousins, the group of five members now became three. Marked as unstoppable, fueled with the desire to continue to sing and succeed, they decided to name themselves "SHAZE" which is created from the sound of their surname. Even though the group down sized from a quintet to a trio, SHAZE was determined to make a permanent mark in the music industry. With insistent efforts they continue to pursue their goal of spreading this gospel through music all across the world. Now with the world as their stage, living in the US, they began singing the local churches and also performed at various events.
