Fatima is an infectious singer, songwriter, looping artist, beatboxer and piano player. Her ability to draw you in and move your soul with stories is rivaled only by emotional delivery of her songs. With influences like Alicia Keys and No Doubt, her talent and energetic performances have made her a favorite in the Rochester (New York) music scene.
In her original material, Fatima draws on life experiences of growing up in war torn Bosnia in the midst of deadly conflict with only a few sparks of hope. It is this unwavering hope and love for the world that gives her the strength to be vulnerably comfortable when expressing herself through music that undoubtedly makes listeners feel emotions they didn’t think a stranger could make them feel. Candid storytelling in between songs gives listeners the inside stories about inspirations and reasons why she wrote each song and it is this banter that makes Fatima even more human and relatable to her audience.
