LEILA is now available on all streaming platforms
100% of the proceeds will go directly to Palestine
“LEILA” is a cinematic song, written from the perspective of an imprisoned Mother. She is so inspired by the Palestinian resistance–and in particular by Leila Khaled, a Palestinian revolutionary, mother, and symbol of resistance–that she organizes her own jail break.
“LEILA” illustrates the complexity of violent resistance as it is tied to human emotion: the inevitable dread of taking up armed struggle, the heartbreak of leaving behind a family, and the unwavering determination to fight for a future worth raising children in. This song sonically depicts fight scenes, unexpected transitions, samples of revolutionaries and news clippings, and staggering climaxes that will send chills down the listener’s soul.
Produced, composed, written, recorded and mixed by yours truly. My day 1
