Suad’s background consists of years of working with a variety of domestic and international bands and projects. Working on her solo career has been a slow trek towards the debut album, a long journey through various experiments to find her voice as a composer and musician. “I’ve been in many bands that at first I didn’t consider myself as a solo artist, I wanted to write songs with others. But after I moved to a new city to study music I ended up on the path I am now. I found myself on my own, so I began writing songs alone”, SUAD tells of the first steps of her career.
Finnish songstress, Suad possesses a powerful voice that mirrors the cool flair of Sudan Archives and the prowess of Lana Del Rey. On her new single ‘Sleep The Nights’, Suad vocally slays a driving beat with passion and magnetism. A pulsing drum beat sets the tone as soaring synthesizer lines dangle in the background, giving this track a sense or urgency and grace.
“Sleep the Nights” is about facing a situation in life that calls for a new perspective and a chance to happen. When we ignore aspects of our emotions that need to be looked at — they pile up and get stuck in our everyday life like little rocks that we carry around. Then comes the time to throw them away.
