Snoh Aalegra

Snoh Nowrozi (born 13 September 1987), better known by her stage name, Snoh Aalegra，is a Swedish singer and songwriter. One of the most exciting voices in recent time, Iranian / Swedish singer and songwriter Snoh Aalegra embodies a soulful sound reminiscent of Michael Jackson, Nina Simone, and Lauryn Hill yet finds its own power, and connectivity, through Aalegra’s signature croon. Her music draws from the classic sounds of her idols as well as the experiences of her life as an Iranian woman who’s long felt like an outsider and now coming into her own. Her breakout 2017 FEELS album catapulted her to a major force receiving large acclaim and global recognition. Including praise from some of music’s heavyweights such as the iconic Prince, who was her mentor for two years before he passed, and luminary hip hop producer No I.D. In addition, she’s already collaborated with celebrated artists and producers such as Drake, Common, John Mayer, Vince Staples, James Fauntleroy, Boi-1da, DJ Dahi, RZA and many more. Deeply inspired by Stevie Wonder, Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, Michael Jackson, among others, she’s created a sound that is reminiscent of her idols, yet lined with an authenticity and raw emotion that is unparalleled and a deep sense of outsiderdom that is largely universal.
