IZZY HELTAI

Izzy Heltai recently made the move from his native Massachusetts to Nashville after a well-received showcase at Americana Fest in 2021. Before performing “All of This Beauty” at the Love Rising concert at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena in March, Izzy shared how vital receiving gender-affirming care as a teenager had been to his journey and very survival as a trans man. Bringing a unique worldview to his music, Izzy’s lyrics address the mix of anxiety and joy queer folks feel as we navigate a hostile world while trying to find love and celebrating the beauty of our LGBTQ+ community. Catch Izzy on the road this summer, playing some of the nation’s biggest music festivals.
