Playtö is a genre-blurring duo out of Arizona, made up of alternative hip-hop/pop-rap artist Jonny Haze and indie pop/alt-R&B artist Z. Lew. Together, they craft melodic, feel-good music that taps into a warm sense of nostalgia — not as a longing to go back, but as a reminder of life’s simplest joys.

Drawing inspiration from artists like Smino, Kaytraminé, Jordan Ward, and Planet Giza, Playtö brings a vibrant mix of carefree energy and emotional honesty. Their sound is as versatile as it is relatable — whether it’s the rush of a first crush or the hazy glow of a childhood memory, Playtö captures the emotions we often overlook in our busy adult lives.

At its core, their music invites listeners to reconnect to an inner sense of childlike wonder.
