Born and raised on Kauai, Hawaiʻi, Pepper Diaz is a 16-year-old singer-songwriter blending rock and pop energy with emotionally honest, old-soul lyrics. Writing and singing since she can remember, Pepper creates music that’s fearless, versatile, and driven by real feeling never confined to one genre or sound. Music has always been at the center of her life. Encouraged by a deeply musical family, Pepper began performing and writing early, developing a lyric-first approach that transforms instinctive melodies and lived experiences into powerful songs. She collaborates closely with her guitarist to bring the sound she hears in her head to life. Now, with her band, Pepper and the Scoville Scale, signed on by Young Outlaw Music, they present their single, “Long Game”, released on April 28, 2026. Stay tuned!
