Lana Lubany shares new single ‘NAZARETH’, announces ‘YAFA’ EP

Palestinian-American artist Lana Lubany has shared her latest single ‘NAZARETH’, alongside news of a brand new EP.

The London-based singer is set to follow up last year’s ‘THE HOLY LAND’ EP with her forthcoming offering ‘YAFA’, a six-track release that will also feature her recent evocative singles ‘PRAYERS’ and ‘ANOTHER YEAR’. Set for release on 31st October via AWAL, it sees her collaborating with producer Ben Thomson. “My upcoming project ‘YAFA’, named after my hometown, incorporates pieces of my upbringing and experiences that have shaped who I am today,” Lana has said of the release. 

“It explores identity and belonging in an environment where you don’t always feel welcome. I’ve always felt like I was in between worlds - an outsider. After having finally accepted my own identity, I was met with yet another struggle to gain acceptance from the world. While navigating these obstacles, music has been my healing point, where I felt like I could fully be myself. ‘YAFA’ the project is a safe space for the in-betweeners and beyond.”

Alongside her newest track - “a fun, carefree song about a safe, comfortable community led space that I find myself missing a lot living away from home” - she’s shared an accompanying video, which was filmed in Jordan and directed by Joel Barney, with production by Sonder.
