Nemahsis

Bio

A rising Palestinian-Canadian singer and songwriter, Nemahsis captivates audiences with her powerful voice and personal lyrics. Her music explores themes of identity and belonging, often drawing on her experiences as a hijabi Muslim woman. In September 2024, she released her debut album Verbathim to much critical acclaim; an independent project that has been lauded by the likes of Stevie Wonder, Elton John, Lorde, and Imogen Heap among many others. Nemahsis began this year with her sold-out headline tour entitled “Don’t Go Where You’d Hate To Be Found” (US/NA) and continues to redefine the trajectory of an independent artist in 2025. Nemahsis was named Women In Music’s Artist of the Year, Rolling Stone’s 25 for 25, and just recently made her JUNOs broadcast performance debut after taking home awards for Alternative Album of the Year (Verbathim) and Breakthrough Artist of the Year. If the first quarter is any indication, 2025 will be a monumental year for the recently crowned “future of Canadian music.”
