Pazl (Greek: Παζλ, pronounced [puˈzel]; English: Puzzle) is the 17th studio album by Greek recording artist Katy Garbi and 18th album overall. The album was first released on 18 February 2011 via a promotional campaign with the Greek news website 'in.gr'. The campaign included a free limited-time digital download of the entire album and a contest for a dinner with Garbi.

The album is entirely composed by Nikos Antipas, extending her collaboration with him which began on her previous album Kainourgia Ego.[3] The majority of the lyrics are credited to the well-known lyricist with the alias GML, with the exception of two songs, "Sti Fotia Rikse Hrysafi" and "Oi Skepseis", written by famous Greek poet Manos Eleftheriou and Vicki Gerothodorou, respectively.[3]
On 3 November 2009, Garbi released the single "Iheia" and announced a planned re-release of the album Kainourgia Ego which would feature three added songs and a remix.[4] However, as the production was underway, the re-release idea was abandoned, and on 9 February 2010, Garbi announced intentions of releasing an all new album instead.[5] Later that year, Garbi left her longtime label Sony Music Greece and signed with Universal Music Greece.[2][6]
