Rasha Nahas

The Berlin-based Palestinian singer from Haifa is a composer, actress, and multi-instrumentalist. Her sound blends raw electronic rock, poetic density, and trans-traditional influences, moving effortlessly between Arabic and English.

Her debut album, “Desert” (2021), explored themes of migration, identity, and inner reorientation. With the acclaimed two-part work “Amrat” (2023), recorded in the occupied Golan Heights and released on the British label Cooking Vinyl, her journey took her from international festival stages like Glastonbury to Berlin and on tours across five continents.

2026 marks a new chapter: Her upcoming album, produced by Meshell Ndegeocello, is her most ambitious project to date and brings together a top-tier lineup of musicians. Accompanied by an international tour, Nahas is entering a powerful new phase – confident and determined to further push her sonic boundaries. Nahas also composes for film, theater, and dance and has been awarded the Bertha Foundation's Artivism Award.

This new era kicks off with a special headline show at HAU Hebbel am Ufer: With a new single and an intense live set, she offers exclusive insights into previously unreleased songs ahead of the official album release in October. Known for her magnetic stage presence and uncompromising sonic aesthetic, Nahas promises an evening that is both intimate and electrifying.
