Songs to Heal and Empower is the product of a period of R&D, starting during the pandemic, where Samia built her own home studio, began learning about recording, music production and mixing with financial backing from The Arts Council of England, regular support from London based sound technician and artist Camilo Tirado, and working closely with the Home Recording Academy (HRA) run by Dr Isobel Anderson, to produce this groundbreaking genre-defying new work.

Songs to Heal and Empower is touring nationally and available across all digital platforms.

Samia says: 'I believe art can inform and transform. It is a powerful route to explore what we have in common and how we can heal individually and collectively. At a time when barriers are being put up across the world, it is vital to see how art can also unite us, how we can use traditional cross-cultural forms to explore important contemporary issues, while also having fun!'
