A lifelong solicitant of old wisdoms, Ahana is enchanted by things unknowable.  If the world leans clutchingly toward conclusion, she seeks a counterweight, digging her heels deep into a love of mystery, inviting you to join her, knowing well the exhaustion of always pursuing an answer.

​

Born in the UK, with roots in Portugal and North India, Ahana’s work draws from a confluence of cultural, musical, and poetic traditions. Her debut album, 'Soma', offers a first glimpse into this dialogue. 

​

Recorded across Portugal and London in collaboration with producer Diogo Sarabando (aka himalion), the 12-song project attempts to un-tell a stagnant story — dismantling a long-held dismissal of the body and the material world, wondering: could the soma be the soul?

​

She doesn't claim to know, but if Ahana is sure of anything, it is the soft might of a tender body, of a form fully felt. And that a suppler heart is more porous to change. And that change is one of the very great magics.
