Nawal – the Voice of the Comoros – touches our hearts with her powerful voice and message of love and positivity, inspired by her grandfather, Al Maarouf, a sufi master. Sufi African rhythms and music instruments such as gambusi, daf and mbira fire up the transforming spirit of her music. Some call her a „mystical pop diva“, and if you ever participated in a Zhikr lead by Nawal, you know that her energy may root you down to the core of planet Earth and at the same time let you fly high soaring with eagles.

Nawal was born on the Comoros Islands (between Madagaskar and the African continent) in Sufi tradition, and came to France age 11. She now lives in Paris as musician.

Nawal´s project: Since early adulthood Nawal visions a center for creativity & education on the Comoros to let people thrive, to support children and women in particular.

Nawal already bought a beautiful piece of land near the ocean, with space for retreat cottages, workshops to produce special products to export, a seminar shala for concerts, yoga, dance, a garden to grow organic veggies and so on. The next step will be to built a workshop house.
