Safiyah Hernandez

Safiyah Hernandez is a 17 year old singer-songwriter who finds comfort in musical composition, where the emotions of adolescence in today’s society are reclaimed through patient-yet-cathartic melodic wanderings. From her South Asian and Mexican musical roots to her parents' Sufism practice, Safiyah uses all within reach as her initial tools in the exploration of character. This familial bond, and union of cultures, can be felt throughout Hernandez’s absorbingly soulful arrangements, where community and collaboration is used as a form of growth, healing, and personal expression.
