Prune Carmen Diaz

Prune Carmen Diaz is a Swiss artist from La Chaux-de-Fonds who transitioned from plastic artist to singer with a unique blend of lo-fi soul. Her music features intimate, old-fashioned soul ballads marked by a shadowy voice and introspective, rainy lyrics. She debuted with the single “December” on Hummus Records and has since grown her sound and presence, performing with pianist-guitarist Louis Jucker and touring intimate venues as well as prestigious stages like Geneva's Alhambra and the Montreux Jazz Festival.

Her debut album, *Disobedience*, showcases powerful, heartfelt songs reflecting personal themes such as solitude, empowerment, and emotional vulnerability. Tracks like “Loneliness” reflect her experience as an autistic woman embracing solitude as a form of disobedience and survival, while “Unfolded” speaks to the scars left by life’s challenges transformed into strength. Self-taught and lyrically candid, Prune Carmen Diaz combines minimalist compositions with a growing, orchestral sound, creating music that is both deeply personal and universally evocative.
