After years of silence, Sivu returns to the scene with his third studio album inevitably flowing out of him. In an ode to creative freedom, he sat down with NBHAP author Giulia for an exclusive conversation on experimental songwriting, finding hope and on the lasting inspiration of family life.
The Iranian singer Faravaz will release her debut, "Azadi" (meaning "Freedom" in Farsi), on May 11th. The record recounts the story of her life in exile in Germany because the Iranian government sentenced her to one year in prison for the act of singing as a woman. Choosing to not return to her homeland, Faravaz fights for women’s rights from abroad. Her music is driven by the yearning and fight for liberation from patriarchal oppression.
