“I’ve worked with some amazing artists,” Chavez says. “Prince, David Sylvian, Ryuichi Sakamoto, and Lenny Kravitz to name a few. I enjoy mentoring young artists, particularly women.”
Chavez is currently promoting her upcoming album, Memories of Flying, producing a video music video for the single Snow-Blind, and focusing on her Snow & Ink Collection, a growing brand that includes her poetry, journal writings, and apparel.
Chavez collaborated with Prince on her first album, titled May 19, 1992, appeared on his Lovesexy LP, and starred in the film Graffiti Bridge. Chavez then teamed up with Lenny Kravitz and Andre Betts to create Justify My Love. Soon another Chavez-penned song, Do Anything by Natural Selection, peaked at #2.
During the mid-1990s, Chavez worked with David Sylvian and Richard Werbowenko on Little Girls With 99 Lives. In 1996, Chavez joined the band Ova, leading to a four song EP. Her second solo album, A Flutter and Some Words, was released in 2010. Next, Chavez collaborated with Marco Valentin as Black Eskimo, releasing the Deep & Heady LP in 2013. Other collaborations include Ganga’s 2015 single Non-Toxic and 2016 Ride with Deep Dive Corp. Chavez is currently featured, along with Ole Theill, on Mashti’s Out of Love.
