Be it her live performances or her exotic videos, Hindi Zahra isn’t quite short of a dream. Her mesmerizing voice, phrasing and vibrato techniques can instantly transport you to a faraway land, and I bet you’ll be unapologetically fixated. She isn’t exactly a new artist, since it has been over 5 years her first album Handmade had been put out, but her being constantly out of the limelight is criminal. If you are an avid music follower, you might have come across her music, but she still has somehow managed to stay off the radar of most listeners. Her folksy jazz style is something no listener should be deprived of.
So, I’d like to take this opportunity to introduce my readers to this Moroccan beauty, who not only pens beautiful melodies and soulful lyrics, but dresses them up with the warmth of her voice into pure gold!
Now, Hindi Zahra might just be what you had been looking for, or she might be an acquired taste. But, her music is definitely hard not to like. Here’s a simple “start-out” playlist of some of the must-listen Hindi Zahra songs.
