SAHRA

Berlin-born, London based, from a young age SAHRA was totally immersed in all things music having been through Aldeburgh Young Musicians program and later accepting a scholarship to study at Trinity Laban. Growing up she was happiest listening to her dad play Somalian music at home and now she’s most comfortable when surrounded by her musical community which she holds close to her heart. To this day she is still working and playing with the musicians she’s known since day one and intends to bring everyone along with her for the ride. SAHRA can proudly call herself a vocalist, composer and arranger, an artist in the truest sense of the word who you will find either performing on stage or teaching singing part-time at the prestigious Trinity Laban College.

SAHRA has a range of enviable career highlights including performing at; London Jazz Festival, Dimensions, WOMAD, We Out Here as well as receiving cosigns from the likes of; BBC Radio 1, 1Xtra, Worldwide and Rinse FM. After a brief hiatus throughout the lockdowns, SAHRA is back for good and her recent single ‘Sorry’ confirms why, gaining support from; COLORS, BBC Introducing, BBC 1’s Victoria Jane, Worldwide FM, The Line Of Best Fit, and Wonderland to name a few. Exuberting mysticism, she is able to express her individuality through stories, commanding attention with her rich and faultless voice.
