Her live performances incorporate the sampler, live percussion, and collaborations with experimental musicians including Shahzad Ismaily, Will Graefe, Kenny Wollesen, and Jesse Harris. Her debut album Hiragt el Rouh, which comes out on Otherly Love Records this year, reinterprets Iraqi folk music through a contemporary, genre-fluid lens.
